WinZip sucks now

What happened to winzip? I thought they were the best for zip archives. But now it seems the free winrar unzips large files WAY faster.

I gave up on winzip when I had it installed for a year and never paid for it. It would count the days and take like 2 minutes to load up.... So, yeah, winrar is betr!!!

Winzips been shitty for years. Winrar has always kicked its ass, though these days I use something that gets better compression (7-zip). It?s free and it?s archives can be extracted using winrar so it?s all good.

I still like ICEOWS. It's small, works with 95-XP, and has a no-bullshit right click contextual menu that nothing else comes close to, because they're all emulating WinRAR these days (It does what you tell it to and fucks off.) Also entirely free.

Does this mean I should trash my copy of PKzip?

Anyone know if Zmodem is also absolete?
