Sounds like you didn't have write permissions on the USB drive (bad mount 
options perhaps?

The bug here would be that KDE didn't tell you about it. Will you please file

You're trying to compress something that is already compressed. In that case, 
the resulting file won't get much extra compression, if any at all. In some 
cases the resulting file can even be bigger (no compression plus extra header
