If you download a Zip and the download is interrupted, the resulting file 
will not open - thus forcing you to go back and try the download again.

If you download an mp3 and the download is interrupted, you get a shortened 
file, which you may not notice is incomplete until you come to listen all 
the way through it.

For this reason I prefer downloading Zips, even if the filesize is not 
actually any smaller than the original mp3.

That's my take on it, anyway!

You'd think by now they'd've improved the software so it actually told you 
the thing had hung - or even restarted automatically when the connection 
could be remade - can't be too difficult, can it!
