i think the main reason we use shn or flaq rather than ISOs is that
a) flaq > shn > iso in terms of compression
b) less chance of corruption of you download each shn or flaq individually instead of a whole ISO. for example, mario uploaded a show to me today and during the upload i had to reboot so he would have continuedon that last shn instead of the whole thing. i have used ISOs for *cough* games and also sharing the groove.
everyone should check their md5s before they burn.
also, mario dont forget to link my ftp faq to the faq here
