    I dont think i have ever gotten a corrupt file either with or without .rar so i dont really see the point in it... fair enough of your compressing an image file... but with .avi i dont see the point... it only sheds around 1mb, lol just takes longer to extract it!

    The only time your gonna get a corrupt file with torrents is if the original file (The one the uploader posted) is corrupt. Its 100% impossible to get a corrupt file with torrents unless the original file was corrupt.

    Most sites stick to rar format cause thats what the scene uses for increased speeds. So the uploaders dont unpack ect... they just post them as they get them to make life easeir.
