What's it all about, Alfie?

This morning I saw that Cyberduck 3.8.1 is out, and while I had gotten 3.8, I hadn't written about it because I hadn't really even fired it up. I have to say that while I didn't mind the nagware screen asking for you to register the product, the little tag on the title bar is a new level of intrusive.

OK... I'm not a registered user, but then again, I'm a Transmit user and pay for all it's updates, etc. Cyberduck is an emergency back-up when Transmit might not get the job done. But to be fair, for those that don't want to pay for an FTP client, and I know a lot of people in that boat, this is a great tool. It's fast and capable, and the nagging is the equivalent of in-app adds on the iPhone. Something I hate, and will pay to see removed, but something that is just fine with a lot of folks.
