I've done a setup with FTP where, as described before every user is chrooted to their home directory, and then I setup aliases with Apache to reference their files. Works great.
I've also noticed that when you make the aliases you should be sure to include a blank directory in the default Apache directory of the same name, that way people will be able to get to it with an incomplete URL (missing the last slash) like http://www.something.com/whatever won't work unless you have an empty whatever directory. The people would simply get a 404. At least that's how things have been for me.
