I need a good, cheap FTP client for Mac OSX. Any suggestions?

anyone using Yummy? Fetch? FTP Client?

thanks in advance.

I've been using Cyberduck lately to SCP files around. It supports FTP too.

So far it's been pretty faithful to me, however its drag-and-drop support sometimes thinks I want to upload the same file twice at the same time. It could just be me or my version, though, and I haven't tried its FTP capabilities. Open source.

I also use Cyberduck. It's free and it works very well for what little FTPin' I be doin'.

These guys make really great apps. I used their ftp client a loooong time ago. I don't know what the difference is between the trial and the purchased version, though, or whether the trial expires or something:

There's an FTP client in Terminal you know. If you dig command lines.

I've always used fetch, and never had any need to look for something better. I think version 4 is free, or something like that.

i use the commandline one on the mac, but i'm pretty geeky.
i even installed cygwin on my pc here at work so i could do it there too.
of course, on unix too... ooohhhhhh yeah commandline ftp.
