    Whilst in theory I completely agree -- I have to say we've got
    several GB of archives that mirror using ftp (using the perl mirror
    scripts) and on the whole it does work very well... it fully
    automated, I never hear from it unless there are problems -- which
    are infrequent.

    What problems are you seeing with ftp -- I assume you are aware the
    perl mirror script has a multitude of knobs to turn to help alleviate
    some of these problems?
