I've just opened one and it looks like it's zipped. Not a very friendly XML doc if it's compressed.
Well, yes, it's a collection of xml files in a zip file. That's pretty standard shit nowadays and on the other side uncompressed verbose file formats are quite rare.
Sorry, "files" are a little bit too 2015 for me. I'm just a bot in the cloud now didn't you know?
