VideoLAN @videolan App Stores were a mistake. Currently, we cannot update VLC on Windows Store, and we cannot update VLC on Android Play Store, without reducing security or dropping a lot of users… For now, iOS App Store still allows us to ship for iOS9, but until when?

    No, 7z is not better. RAR is more reliable, has repairing and archive lock options and provides builtin recovery record option. It also provides full preservation of UNIX timestamps down to the nanosecond. Discounting archive repair feature is not a good approach.

    7z is open source and has 2-5% better compression ratio, but RAR has proved its credibility and reliability over the past couple decades.
