Hey.

I think we need good compression apps for Xbox ie, WinRAR or Winzip that can be used to compress/decompress files off xbox fast & efficiently.

Being able to do this will rid the FTP time outs and such when FTP'ing thousands of small files. I have tried FTP'ing over RAR files & using Complex Tools and it works great other than Complex Tools is way to slow and cannot compress files.

Thats my 2 cents.

V.S.

if it was so easy someone would have probably done it already. i think it's a cool idea but i unno i'd think an app like that would have been made already if it was possible.

Avalaunch File manager can un-rar and unzip files into the same folder as the compressed file...also i think Unleashx can do the same.
Neither can make compressed files yet...but it's gotta be coming soon.

thats such a good idea, more stuff will be able to fit on your xbox! there should be a seriously powerful compressor/decompressor that compresses whole games to around 500mb or something! dam that would be good.
