Is there a way to condense a downloaded file to be burned to 4.7 gig DVD disc to where you can burn more than one file to that DVD disc? Thank you

There's a few ways to compress files.
One common way is to use the command: tar, which can gather a number of files together into an archive, and compress the archive using the relevant command options which select the compressing program for tar to use. There are a number of such compression programs including: gzip, bzip2, xz. There are others which are outlined in the tar man page.

Another way is to compress the files directly and individually using those same compression facilities.
