Default "cheap" way of saving array

Using .cvs files allows transfers:

1. without worrying about the version of Excel in the recipient's computers
2. without worrying about the security levels in the recipient's computers
3. in a form that can be manually inspected
4. in a form that can usually be ZIP'ed to a high level of compression

The issue is why wouldn't you ?

Hello.
I work with very large arrays (50000 x 15) that often have to be transferred
through my network.
What is the cheapest way (resource-wise) way to transfer this array from one
computer to the other?
Should I create a CSV?
Should I transfer it as an Excel workbook?
Is there a better way?
I thank you in advance for your advice.
