 * "free publisher" account: means you provide one (and the same) account to all the people who need access to the files. You have no granularity with regard to removing access. They either all have access or none of them have access.
 * "paid publisher" account: means you provide each person with their individual account. You can then remove access on an individual basis.
 * "blind put" account: allows several clients to upload files to a specific location using a shared account without being able to list the files in that location or to download them (ie they can't see each others files). It's an easy way to give multiple clients the possibility to upload documents without too much administrative overhead.
