I don't quite get what you are asking. Zipping and unzipping is lossless
compression. Decompressing a zipped ogg will give you exactly the same ogg.
Usually there is no point in compressing an ogg/mp3/jpeg, as they have
little redundancy and the compression ratios are very low.
You'll end up only wasting processor time in applying the compression
algorithm.
