I am fairly certain that if you make a poll with only the VIP able to answer, most of us will answer yes readily. Me included. This is really not the point though since nobody else than Kosta and the admins have a say in the matter. And of course, Kosta is weighing way more in the balance too. So, unless Kosta changed his mind since the last time...
The whole point here is: Even if we were to offer two downloads, one with .zip and another for 7zip... There would be a lot of computer knowledgable people who will be pleased to download the 7zip version. But 90%+ of the downloads, those made by people who don't know better, won't even bother to try to discover what 7zip is and will download the .zip version anyways. If we switch all the .zip files to 7zip, most of those 90%+ people will complain that they can't do anything with that "strange file" they downloaded and will either not bother further or flood the troubleshooting forum with stupid questions. Those who won't bother further might be people we are trying to reach out about old games, people who might have joined the rest of this group in the preservation of said games.
It's a good idea, but in the long run it's unfortunatly pretty much a loss/loss situation.
