What's the benefit of this over ftp?
Most people don't know how to use ftp anymore. It's a pretty limited protocol (and requires 2 open ports to function). It's hard to integrate with good modern auth solutions. Probably more, that's off the top of my head.
I personally use Calibre+Calibre-web.
It's configured as a proxy for the Kobo store, the default store for my e-reader.
That means that when I click the sync button on my Kobo, it downloads anything hosted on my calibre-web server, while still keeping the ability to browse the Kobo store.
