RAR has one special advantage over ZIP: with RAR you can make self-extracting 'split archives' out of big files. This makes it possible to post video clips or PZ3 files in eGroups message areas, or to send them via email when the email service has restrictions on message size. The receiver needs no special software; just download all the sections, then run the .EXE section, which reconstitutes the original MPG or whatever.
