Lavelle;
A standard, FAT formatted 3.5" floppy disk has a maximum file capacity of 1.44 megabytes. The average .mp3 music file is probably on the order of 1.5 to 2 megabytes. You will be lucky to even save one music file to a floppy disk.

Lavelle,

Just copy the files on YouTube to a file/folder on your hard drive. Floppy disks are quickly becoming a thing of the past, and are not a good way to store any data. Entertain getting a CD-RW which is a readable/writable CD. Do you have any local friends that could help you?

Another question, what kind of PC and Operating System do you have? if you are asking about floppies.
