1) Which format am I referring to?
2) What type of program do I need to be able to put a large number of songs on only 1 CD?
3) If it is mp3 format, why cant i put hundreds/thousands of songs on an mp3 player in this "compressed" format?
Please help me unconfuse this problem.
Thanks!

I don't know of any format where you could put thousands of songs on a CD. For 100+ songs though you can use formats like MP3, AAC (and its derivatives), Ogg, (maybe WMA) and possibly others. but I am not sure if you could play them on a car CD player (except for MP3 which I know you can). Space that each song would take up is determined by factors like length of song, bit rate used, format used and other things I can't think of. Those factors (along with the ones I can't/don't know) would determine how many songs you could fit on one CD.
