Per Metalink Note 247705.1
...
You can compress RMAN backup pieces at O/S level once they have been
created 
but keep in mind that these are not directly readable by RMAN. You will
have to
manually uncompress these backup pieces before making them available to
RMAN for
restore.
...

Does anyone do this or have any comments/thoughts?  
TIA.
