Best way to compress? 13 years, 4 months ago #1824

I hadn't really thought about it much until I realized I had an outdated version of The Unarchiver. After updating I remembered how I tend to use OS X's built-in compression (context menu) when I want to pack stuff up together.

Is there a better way? Perhaps an app like The Unarchiver in that it's very simple and supports many formats, but for compressing of course instead of uncompressing.

I'd say with the size of hard drives and the sped of most internet connections, the space savings you will gain using a different compression method aren't as useful as the built in contextual menu.

Honestly, the only reason I compress things at all is to combine multiple files into one for easy transfer.
