No Rar. Because to use the file, I had to extract it and it's using up extra disk space. Even more so if you are seeding the torrent.

unRARed, just less of a hassle and i go out of my way to avoid any RARed torrent if i can.

NoRAR's is the best. Easy to keep files in order, easy to seed and cross seed.


.rar is a great compression format. But it hasn't been needed since 2004. larger hard drives and bigger bandwidth mean we don't really care about compression and errors as much.


also...

Its good to be back.

unrared will get seeded 1000 times longer on my system

unRARed torrents

I'd say go with rar if its needed, if it's just a small file then no need to rar it just an un-neccesary step.

rar

Why: Because you can transfer them faster then a unrar file.

I hate rar files on large files. Unrared Original files for me is preferred

RAR'ed, solely because then when I download something, I can cross seed on any tracker I'm on. If it's unRAR'ed, that cuts down on where I can seed the same release.

Most probably unrared if disk space is low


Otherwise its good for cross-seeding
