Like I said,
no one has to use the 7ZIP unarchiver. WinRAR supports 7ZIP just as well. I just tried it out to be sure! As does ZIPGenius, TugZIP, PeaZIP and countless other archive tools. Notable exception: WinZIP. But do you want to waste so much server space so that people can use the sole program that denies to support the format with the best compression?
Also, I guess we have a slight misunderstanding: The 151MiB archive was packed in the
7ZIP format, and this was without ECM. With the use of ECM I got it down to ca. 76MiB. On the other hand,
ZIP with ECM resulted in a
174MiB archive.
Okay, if that's just fine, and if you want to waste so much space, then I'll upload the archive. No prob. But I thought, since it's over the limit, I might look around for a better solution.
