Make sure the downloads can actually complete.
Use good compression/extraction software, like 7zip.

Is 7zip better then Winrar (which I like and use alot) - apart from 7zip being open source ?

WinRAR sucks compared to Power. Smong - Tue May 10, 2005 5:33 pm Post subject:
Whenever someone recomends software I always look for a buy button which I usually find 1 second before closing the page. When I get mervbot I use IZArc.

Which program compresses the best?
SamHughes - Wed May 11, 2005 6:18 pm Post subject:
It depends on what you mean by "best". And that depends on what costs you money: disk space, bandwidth, time, price of software, whether the end user owns the decompression software...
Actual filesize performance depends on the sort of data that is getting compressed, too.

7zip has really good compression

All the popular programs are pretty close to one another in terms of compression. You might save a few KB on large files, but nothing drastic.
