I don't think Creator Classic has ever had compression. It does have disc spanning though. If you want to compress data in a backk up, then use Roxio Backup.

Compression was an option under Disc Spanning but was dropped a few versions ago…

Of course it required Retrieve.exe to uncompress it, and if anything went wrong with a disc, NOTHING could be used to recover the files…

Much like MS HD Compression. If the HD goes bad, nothing will be recoverable…

In short compression will put you on the short path to disaster.
