Hi Peter, thats interesting. Right now, I pack the 20000 video files (total 8 GB) in 10 zip files on DVD and store them when installing in a users choice location on HD. I would have never thought it would be a good idea to create one big 8GB app bundle. Do you think this would be a good idea? Wouldn't this affect the loading time and memory requirement of the app? I always thought that if you start an app, the whole bundle is loaded into memory.

I don't know, how I could realize this with the classic "drag > and drop from DMG" paradigm. Hi Tiemo, Don't forget that .DMG files are already compressed. I would normally recommend simply shipping your 20000 videos as separate files within your app bundle.
