 You are right that using different comression schemes outperform any one
scheme. But a full RAR isn't openly available in source form AFAIK. And using
trial and error to find an optimal compression scheme isn't an especially speedy
endeavor.
 So using a compression scheme that is on average superior to any one of the
different RAR schemes is to me a no brainer.
 All that said, I do use the compression scheme I know works best on a
particular data set. Like ratDVD for DVD. But then again media compresion
doesn't have to be lossless.
