Yeah, that's probable. Also if a game constantly uses the disc, and doesn't just use it in little chunks (like, say, pulling off sentence fragments... :D), I'm sure that it gets more consistent performance. It doesn't have to keep spinning up and down...
Like Civilization II, or most other games that stream redbook audio off the CDs. They don't spin super loud most of the time, I'd say... sometimes with some discs yes but not as the rule. And because the music's always playing it doesn't have to keep stopping, which seems to be good to help avoid this problem.
