Zip files are a common meansof sending files via e-mail, because the compressed fileis smaller than the original (in terms of bytes) and, therefore, transfers more quickly over the Internet. Some files you can download from the Internet mightalso be delivered to you as a zip file, again to make thefile smaller and quicker to download.
