Your right, your way isn't as efficient
ISO is the way to go in myHTPC assuming your using the defacto DVD player in myHTPC.
Check out the feature page for simpleDVD:

You'll notice it can play movies directly from the ISO file without you having to mount the image outside of myHTPC. Doing it this way allows you to keep all your ISOs in a slick easy to manage directory structure without the maintenance headaches.
By keeping the images in ISO format you can very easily burn the movie back to DVD also.
