WinRARRRRR!

So as you might have heard I'm building a new media storage place. And that means Ive got to move everything from one place to the other (and consolidating at the same time). But what if you have gobs and gobs of music and don't want to wait 14 years for your file to file copy to go through, you should really think on compressing the data before you send it.

Enter the WinRAR
Theres a few good compression utilities you can use, PKUNZIP and WinZip are among what must be tons, but WinRAR is what *I* use, and so thats what I'm talking about. I was able to set it up so that I compressed all the music I owned and moved it to the place i wanted it sent and when it gets there I can have WinRAR unpack it all just like where it came from- it's a very sturdy little piece of program. Moving, Backing up, sharing, most people use some kind of utility when doing one or all of those activities and for my money (free, incidentally) WinRAR wins.
