Repack groups usually use that kind of "recompression" when source audio files are too big.

Pure example would be games that come with audio encoded in .wav format which is much larger than .mp3 or .ogg.

They convert source .wav files into .ogg during the packing and installation re-converts the files back to .wav format.
