KGB Archive - File Compression

Have you ever had a large file that you wanted to send to someone over the internet and i was going to take days to send, or have you ever wanted to put a large file on a small flash drive? Well now you can with KGB Archive. KGB Archive is very a very strong piece of software. You can choose between lower, low, average, good, extreme, and monumental compression seatings. My results are amazing. I Archived a 2.5Gb .iso file down to 200Mb. The major downside is the time it takes to compress a file. It took me 35 Hours to compress that file on extreme compression and I'm using a 2.0GHz Core 2 Duo. I would definitely recommend a dual core for this application.

KGB Archive can be downloaded here - http://www.kgbarchiver.net/?page=download

Movies on Flash Drives

Movies have traditionally been on disc or on VHS tapes, but what if u could legally put them on your USB flash drive. One company called PortoMedia wants that to become possible by using Kiosks like the Red Box. Chris Armstrong said, “The kiosks will be packed with hard drives that can hold 350 to 5,000 titles. Users then plug in a memory device from the company, enter a PIN code, and buy or rent a movie. When consumers get home, they simply slide the memory device into a dock connected to a TV.” These movies can be played on your PC or TV. The only down side is that you have to buy a dock. The dock is sold in a package for $60. You get 6 Movies, USB Flash drive, and the dock. Another option for users is to pay $160 and get a handheld player with a 1.8-inch hybrid hard drive with 240GB of storage, a dock, and 12 movies.
