I'm trying to send a couple hundred ebooks to my father in law but they are obviously roo large to send through email, and doing them individually is rather tedious.

What's the easiest way to send him these files?

He's quite technologically incapable, so it would be best if they could be sent without compressing, but even compressed they are too large to send through email.

compress them but maybe 5 separate folders that are compressed

its easy as fk to uncompress them

send him a youtube video explaining it, within 1 minute he will learn

Dropbox You can share 2GB of files ...free.

All versions of Windows since Vista should be able to automatically un-compress a file compressed by Windows.

Print all of them, sort into document folders, arrange by tab in document boxes, and have them delivered by professional expediter

Actually considered this honestly. I've got some spares.
