Even though there has been talk about better protection from this oil, I'm still a little hesitant due to the 0w-50 rating....I don't even understand how an oil can have a viscosity rating of 0

Is there any information that carries the same format as Amsoil and Redline? So that at least an equal comparison can be made?
AMSOIL 100% Synthetic 10W-30 Motor Oil (ATM) [revised as of 7/06] (Redline 10W-30 Full Synthetic)
Kinematic Viscosity @ 100°C, cSt (ASTM D-445)
