Does anyone know if it is possible to back up original game CDs in 1 DVD?

I hate having to bring along all my game CDs in my CD case, and having virtual CDs in my hard drive takes too much room. I am talking about good working copies, that I could use to install the game and insert when the game asks for my game CD.

If anyone knows how to do it, please post it.

I am going to try to put CD images in a DVD and make virtual CDs out of them. If anyone has gotten negative results out of this please let me know before I start making coasters.

IMO, this is the best way to back up several games games in 1 DVD.

1. install the game with latest patches
2. Find and replace orginal game exe with nocd patched exe
3. compess the game with WinRAR
