I have few questions:
Don't compress files that are already compressed (like how JPEG/PNG images or video files are). Their inherent compression is usually good enough, and you only trade some 5% in lower compressed size for a much lengthier and often non-seekable decompression that results in using twice the disk space.
If you need to batch the files together, just use tar.
