Compressing Large Files

There seems to be some very gifted folks on this forum, and I was wondering if you could give me some options to ponder. I want to send my son some movies. They are about 1gb each and in flv format. What is the best way to compress them and how much of a compression ratio could I expect? Is it easier just to send them to him on a DVD? He has a server so I could compress and upload to his server, but would he then need the compression software on his server to 'uncompress' .

Thanks

Gentleman Jim
