VLC Feb 13, 2002, 10:21 PM You all maybe interested to know when i noticed yesterday that the same arc-file for download was in two formats, ie rar an zip - rar was 1.40 mb an zip was 1.66 mb ! thus what you found was true, in thats a lot of data you can save when the input files mount up :) DMC Mar 01, 2002, 11:23 PM I've always used ZIP *AND* RAR but I've noticed that the RAR format compresses more. I've also noticed that Zip files created in WinRAR compress MORE than Zip files created in WinZip. The only reason I still use ZIP is because it's still pretty common. Don't know anything about the ACE format. Only ever extracted files from this. |
