File Compatibility

When uploading files (not HTML or "pages" of any sort, but like downloadable files), what format do you use for different forms of media?

For any type of document I usually use PDF (so people can't edit them easily/more compatible), movies we usually use .mov or .avi and all our photos are.jpg. Anyone have any great break throughts I should know about?

Oh, and for compression I use .zip since not everyone can unzip .rars or .7z

Do you think its worth having different versions (i.e. a .zip and a .tar.gz) of the samething on the website? Or do is one compatible version enough?

Just trying to get some feedback.
