Why is .lzh format still popular with japs?

The rest of the world uses .zip and .rar and these retards still seem to use .lzh a lot.

It's not because the format itself was constructed by a "fellow" Jap is it?

Gzipping a tarball is similar to a ZIP file, but this is not what you posted so don't come changing what you said to look less stupid. You said zip -9 is equivalent to gzip -9 which is not. Nothing will change the fact you're an idiot.
