Dear Josh, If you downloaded the entire Bible, then the file, after you have unzipped it, should be almost 5 megs in length.
Most web sites I have been to only let you download a book at a time and the files are not zipped. Since I'm not a Bookshare member, I always unzip files using my PC. I'm glad I can do this, because I don't want to join Bookshare. If I didn't have a PC, I would be forced to join Bookshare just so I could unzip files using the BN. I really think there should be a standard unzip utility for the BN so people aren't forced to become bookshare members to unzip a file which is not a bookshare file.
