FTP vs. ActiveSync

[garberfc]

I often transfer relatively large (~150MB) video files from a PC to the Mogul. I generally use ActiveSync but don't really like it b/c if it has a problem it won't resume the transfer and the progress bar generally is meaningless.

Is there any downside to using an FTP program?

What is ActiveSync converting when it says it's converting during the transfer? Is it just CR/LF inconsistencies in text files??

TIA,
