Yeah it's usually an ISO within multiple RARs within multiple ZIPs. And this is when they don't act playful and use an obscure archive format that can only be extracted with a (paid or free but infected) closed source app.
Depending on the platform I'm using I have some code in bash, Powershell and C# to deal with this. Non coders must have a hard time !

From my observation, most downloads are rar format (95% at a guess), but it doesn't really matter if it's rar or 7z as the differences in resource usage are negligible. The good news is that most archives support free extraction of both formats.
