Once installing this app, all future release can then be downloaded and installed via tha app itself. It's a really great new feature that Ronen recently added.

actually, cab is a form of compression and ziping doesn't shrink much. however many places don't let you upload them, and are better for firewalls/anti virus. but the other reasons are good too.
also the zip format is almost as old as I am. it was the only way to fit pictures on a floppy disk. if it ain't broke don't fix it right..
auto update inside the app is the best thing since satellite tv.
