Well, the complete collection of zip files from DP total 5GB. So, it would be too big for a dvd-5, but might fit on a dvd-9.
Suggestion: see how much better other compression algorithms do (eg: bzip2) The binaries can be included on the DVD for various systems, they are small in comparison. Samely, for XML books (let's assume in the end all books will be XML'ed), just consider the source XML version (bzipped); XML to other format tools can be included on the DVD too.
