Loading times on cd's are about 5 times longer from what I have seen. Ripping down to cd's not only make the game crap, but is also hard to do if possible. It requires downgrading audio and movie files, if not completely removing them. This would mean that you will have to convert them to a known format, downgrade, then convert back. Many filetypes don't even have tools though.

Some games like halo, can be split up. Like playing level 1-3 on one disk, 4-5 on another, etc...Not only would you have long loading times and no videos, but you would also have to change disks frequently. There's almost no games that will be able to be ripped. At leasr not any good ones.
