Why not have both, so the user can choose? Many other
things on the net do just that. That way, I can choose
bz2 for a quick download, or use gz if I am using an
inferior OS :)

While we're on the subject, how about digitally signing the
releases as well? An MD5 checksum is fine, but certainly
won't protect against trojans and other maliciousness that
a pgp signature could prevent.
