7zip cannot compressed into rar files and WinRAR cannot compressed into 7z files; is it because they cannot make it or because of the copyright issue for the compression algorithm?? and the winzip format is copyright free/open source?

Seriously, that's a non-issue to me as usually .zip is the widely use format (as far as my work is concerned)

While WinRAR is more popular and perhaps powerful, I choose 7zip because it is free and quite easy to use
