You need to minimum be sure there is no way to access files here via http. Remember it can't be reachable under your generic ipower domain name also. As in otherwise I (or anyone) could easily/completely hack the website with this much info.
PS: Also this is ok for developers / friends of the site of whatever. But it's not acceptable for the general public. I've never had trouble downloading stuff here via http and my internet service is nowhere up to basic cable capacity. But you might recommend download managers (I'm pretty sure ipower downloads are resumable) and if necessary look into pay download services. The main advantage I see in offering people ftp access is it's much faster I think (because ipower allows it to be)
