.bz2 is the filename extension associated with the bzip2 data compression format. It is an open source data compression and decompression tool developed by Julian Seward in 1996. The compression and decompression format is cross platform compatible and comes bundled with versions of Linux and UNIX. The latest of Bzip2 exists as an open source library for download and customization. Earlier versions have executables that can be run directly on Microsoft Windows.
The .7z filename extension is associated with the 7z compressed file archive format and the open source 7-zip compression utility both developed by Igor Pavlov. The format had its initial release in 1999. It consists of a start header 32 bytes in size which contains the signature and link to the ending header, followed by the compressed data, a metadata block, and finally the end header. 7z supports limited recovery options for 7z archive files which can open but for one reason or another cannot extract due to CRC or other data related errors.
FreeFileConvert uses tuned encoding for TBZ2 to T7Z conversions, preserving clarity while trimming file size. Finished audio streams instantly across phones, tablets, desktops, and modern browsers without extra tweaks.
Upload TBZ2 files from desktop, tablet, or cloud storage, queue multiple jobs, and let the converter finish autonomously. Return whenever convenient to download synchronized T7Z results on any device you rely on.
Process up to 5 files sized 1000 MB per batch without splitting queues manually. Mixed-format uploads convert together, producing consistent T7Z audio with dependable progress tracking.
Bzip2 compresses data using the Burrows-Wheeler block-sorting text compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. It is a client of the libbzip2 library. Because the bzip2 is built on top of this freely available library, users are free to create their own programs to compress and decompress bzip2 files.
The 7z compressed archive format was designed to be extensible, to allow it to easily adopt new compression algorithms as they are released. As of writing, the 7z format had support for seven compression algorithms namely LZMA, LZMA2, PPMD, BCJ, BCJ2, BZip2, and DEFLATE. The default algorithm used for compression is LZMA. It is also compatible with the stronger AES-256 encryption algorithm and is capable of compressing file structures of up to 16 Exabyte in size. Filenames can use any characters from the Unicode character set. 7z does not ignore errors found in headers of compressed archives, and as such will not open such archives.
