Jason, I may be wrong, but from what I understand, SMACKER uses a compression format that they developed. To use that format you have to buy thier software. I don't believe they made this format available in the public domain, so you need to buy their software to use it. A proprietary format like that, tends to take longer to become popular, if it ever does. -GreG -If my impressions about SMACKER are wrong, please do let me know
