RATDVD is nothing like Winzip. RATDVD uses lossy compression and re-encodes the video and audio.

"Is the reconverted ratDVD (to DVD) as good as the original?

Yes! There might be some small limitations to the quality based on the settings chosen, but it is a fully functional, compatible, high quality DVD-Video."
So, basically RATDVD is a glorified DVDShrink. Two thumbs down.
