A short follow-up thought to my previous post

Also if you'll notice that previous ISO images always included the md5sum of
the bunzipped image on the web page.  This is more useful as its important to
"know" that the image I'm about to burn to a cdrom is correct.  I don't care
to know or to check that *.iso.bz2 has a correct md5sum.  I do want to know
that *.iso has a valid md5sum.  What if during bunzipping the image is
corrupted somehow ?
