- «Me gustaría» es más para expresar un deseo difícil de alcanzar, reconociendo que depende completamente de sucesos externos para que ocurra. También lleva implícita una petición para que pueda suceder: «Me gustaría conocer a mi cantante favorito».
- «Yo quiero» es para expresar una intención que se quiere conseguir y ante la cual voy a poner toda mi voluntad para alcanzarla, porque en parte depende de mí: «Quiero aprobar el próximo examen»

Hi! "Me gustaría" is more polite. "Quiero" is very used, it just shows your desire.
Don't use "Yo" unless you wan't to show some contrast with other people.
If you are a native Japanese speaker, have in mind that using "yo quiero" is just like:
私は ... したい
You might not want to mentione yourself.
Regards!
