 WinZip is not even worth you downloading it cracked like I use to., 2007-10-02
Pros: WinRAR is the best.
Cons: It's not a question of hating the app; I used to use WinZip myself since windows 3.1. Unfortunately, it hasn't really improved much since then. Its the limitation of the zip format, they can't possibly improve its compression significantly without totally changing the algorithm.
There are plenty of other programs that do more, have better compression, look better and cost cheaper than WinZip which means there could be no possible reason to use WinZip.
Why, WinZip is so poor, that it can't even Zip files as good as other programs do- create a zip with WinRAR, for eg, and you'll find that the zip created by WinRAR is actually smaller than that made by WinZip!
