Do they not even use compression anymore? I've been wondering since Steam came out if I was downloading compressed game files or wasting bandwidth every time. They used to try to conserve storage, compressing everything to fit on one or two discs (or floppy disks before that)
If you watch the download graph, the blue bars is what you're downloading, and is always significantly smaller than the green line which is what is being saved to disk.
