Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu compressed ISO file?

ZIP doesn't do a fabulous job of compression, Bzip will get the data significantly smaller. Hosting both files will require more storage on the server side and essentially double the space needed to store the same info. If space is a luxury then I'd say do it, otherwise you may have to bite the bul
