This file format has been deprecated. Please use a PDF file with bookmarks instead.

ZIP files are compressed archives which -most of the time- contain more than one file (i.e. ZIP files aren't music files, but archive files which contain music files such as PDF, DJVU, MUS or SIB)

To extract files from a ZIP file, you can use one of the following applications:

7-Zip - 7-Ζip is an OpenSource application with which you can extract and create ZIP files, as well as other archived formats (such as RAR and TAR). There is a version for both Windows and Linux.

ZipIt - ZipIt is an application for Macintosh with which you can extract/create ZIP files.

The only files that are allowed inside ZIP archives are the files mentioned before, i.e. PDF, DJVU, MUS and/or SIB, or even ZIP files (if there is a reason).

Note, also, that in the latest version of most known operating systems (Windows, Linux, Macintosh) there are pre-installed applications with which you can open ZIP files (Windows XP and up have WinZip installed, in Linux there is Ark and 7-Zip etc).
