the other day I learned you can download Wikipedia and it's something like 50 GB of text plus 50 GB of pictures
Or send only the entertainment articles. Why wouldn't the aliens want to hear about the life and exploits of Leonardo DiCaprio?
A few years ago (~2010) I had the entire German Wikipedia on my 8gb iPod touch. It was only about 4gb in size without media.
