An .rar file are technically more powerfully compessed, and faster. A zip file is slower and doesn't have as high of a compression factor.

Low level format! It's easy, safe but it takes a long time! :). You can find all sort of software that can do this!

File compression programs work better on text than on binary files.  Images and movies are mostly binary, therefore they don't compress much.\n\nThat said, you might get a 2% to 3% savings by zipping all your images and movies.  After you create a zip, you can delete the original files.  If you are REALLY low on storage space, then that will help.

Using a pen/thumb drive is the most efficient way. They some in different capacities. You should get the one with the largest capacity if you plan to move huge files.\n\nNote: This suggestion is for data files only. You can never move O/S or system files or even programs.

There is a limit to the amount you can compress. I've heard good things about using http://www.yousendit.com/ to send large file sizes, though.

Install WINRAR, then right click on the file you want to compress and there you will find compress with WINRAR, select that option. WINRAR will automatically compress the file in smaller bytes.

You can always use the GNU Gzip utility.\nhttp://www.gzip.org/#exe\nHowever, it's a command line utility.  I've never seen any free GUI alternatives...

For the best reproduction of the original music use the highest possible bit rate. \nWMA and MP3 are types of compression, which one is best is highly debatable.\n\n128kbps MP3 AC/DC at full volume sounds OK to me, and sounds just the same in 128kbps WMA on my MuVo.  :)
