Still $200 per domain and year for a simple ftp-component
that claims to still required java and not just javascript as the title
leds to believe.
It's not like ftp is a terribly complicated protocoll.

It's not $200 per year. It's $200 forever. The 12-month subscription
refers to how long users are eligible for support and updates. This is
standard in the component market.

I'd also like to point out that, while it's true that FTP isn't a terribly
complex protocol, Integral FTP is actually a very sophisticated and complex
piece of software. In particular, getting JavaScript and Java to
interoperate reliably on multiple platforms was a real challenge. It also
employs connection- and thread-pooling to facilitate multiple simultaneous
transfers, each of which is abortable and reports progress.
Finally, Integral FTP is unique. While there are FTP applets around.
These are traditional applets with Java GUIs; they do not offer full any
real integration with HTML/JavaScript. Integral FTP offers a JavaScript
class that allows FTP operations to be controlled completely through
JavaScript, thus allowing the web-developer to design their own user
interface.
