Just do a network share.

Network share will still run 2-10mbps, still will take quite a while.
DvDs/USB drive might be quicker depending on how quick your computer copies the data.
If both machines have USB 2.0, then the USB-USB cable would be a good choice as well.

I usually keep my movies/mp3s on a separate drive so it's easy to connect to my workstation and my macbook.

I suggested network share simply because he has no usb cord, as stated.
