As Pappy said, mp3s (and wma) are already pretty compressed. You can select files and right click> send to> Compressed (zipped) Folder. Why not burn them to a DVD?

If they are in the mp3-format, you can't compress them that much because they are already compressed. Winrar or winzip can save you a little space. Try configuring them to use the highest compression mode and see what happens. You can also re-encode the files and lower their quality if you really need to have them all on one USB-drive.
Good Luck!

Download 7-Zip to compress the file so they could fit on the drive. www.7-zip.org/download.html
Good Luck

if they are .mp3 format that is about as compressed as you can make them. Putting them in a .zip file won't compress them enough to make a real difference.

Instead of using Mp3, use wma. you can roughly double the capacity of the flash drive. Wma will show no loss in sound quality as comparied to Mp3 format.
