Best 3rd Party File Transfer Apps

I'm sure this has been discussed, I wasn't able to find an appropriate discussion.

What best the best 3rd party applications for Mac for moving my music, photos, and videos, from my iPhone 4 to my MacBook? Paid is fine.

Thanks!

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.5)

A google would probably give about 333 suitable apps 😉
My choice is GraphicConverter and iView MediaPro which is my image cataloger. Much better than iPhoto.

Whatever transfer App I am using, images from my iPhone are never sorted by date or name which makes it difficult to select subsets.
Is this something with my iPhone (3GS on FW 3.1.2) or an issue of my sync apps?

Hasn't anyone used a program to move songs and photos from an iPhone/iPod to their computer? Are there copyright issues preventing people from posting or something?

I would assume most people already have their music, videos and photos on their computer, as that's where iTunes syncs from to get stuff onto the phone in the first place.

Usually, the only use for these sorts of programs is when you've lost the data on your computer without having a backup.

Photos and videos taken with the phone can be transferred easily using software already on your Mac.
