I hope this would not mean that rsync would be discontinued 
in favour of zsync.

The zsync website states:

"[W]here rsync is designed for synchronising data from one 
computer to another..., zsync is designed for file 
distribution, with one file on a server to be distributed to 
thousands of downloaders."

I use rsync every day for exactly its intended purpose, but I 
have NO use of the latter function.
