I dabbled with FTP sites, but they were not as easy to use as IRC or newsgroups, also I found that finding what I wanted was a lot harder with the ftp sites than with IRC.
There are ftps with ratios or very few download slots, just as conversely there exist IRC channels with no queues and massive speeds. The difference is IRC channels are a lot easier to find and search, and don't disappear anything like as often.
