Hello,

Could you give the download files in two sdifferent packages : separate the manual and demo files from the rest ?
For example Easine could be 18 Mo instead of 72 Mo !

Thanks.

Hello,
Creating a package is probably one of the most difficult thing to do (we have 16 different products). For example I spent 2 weeks to create/debug the 5.70 one.
Sorry but don't you think I should use my time to develop Usine instead of 2 more weeks for another complete package?

And we should meditate on the 1311MB zip of Ableton Live (compare 72MB for Usine)...;)

Oh sorry, I didn't know...
I only tought naively that it would be simple to not put the 50 MB manual folder in each of the packages, since it is also available separately.

And we could also meditate on the 5.8 MB of Reaper compared to the 1311 MB of Live ;-)

Well, with 7zip (7z) using best compression the package is down from 75.1 to 56.33 Mb without adding any other overhead.
But then People need to have 7zip...
Can of worms, may not be worth it.

Cheers,

Thomas

yes, as you say 7zip is a good archiver but not well known .
