Make it possible to download a compressed (zip?) vhd instead of the full vhd
Make it possible to download a compressed (zip?) vhd instead of the full vhd. Now I have to download the whole vhd and not just the bits that are actually used.

We are thinking of enabling an easy way to download a dynamic VHD to reduce the download size, if that helps? Unfortunately, I don’t think VHD files compress that well.

That would be great. Downloading 127GB might only work out to a few dollars, but even on a decent connection can take days...

Hello just try to compress the vhd from some sample VM. It does compress very well depending on the data on that vhd of course.
