But think about it! You saved almost 8 seconds on the download and it
only cost you 3 minutes to unzip! Such a deal!! Not even a politician
could make a deal this good!

Still not a big fan of zipping udf and iso files. It doesn't save that
much space and you end up wasting it (even if only temporarily) doing the
unzipping.
For example let's say you have a 4.2GB iso file. You zip it down and now
it's only a 4.1GB zip file. Ok, so you saved 100MB. However to do the
zipping and unzipping you need space for both, or in this case, 8.3GB.
