For people with big collections, this cumulated amount is quite mentionable.

Bad examples? Most of my GC games are compressed 10-20% with Dolphin's compression, and Wii games like Wii Sports/NSMB from 4.4GB to a few 100MB. And these discs are filled with junk data that won't compress with 7Zip.

Same thing here

Oh ha ha I thought it was something with FPS when he said "It has it's advantages too (e.g. fast reading)."

But I don't know... as I said in my post too, hard drives is cheap today.
Just get a bigger one and let them be uncompressed.

I guess he meant "extraction time". 4.4GB archives may be long to extract
