How long should it take to rip a CD?

Hi! Sorry if this has been asked/answered before - I couldn't find anything when searching and there's no FAQ for it.

How long should it take to rip a cd using MD Simple Burner (the version attached to SonicStage 2.2)? I have an MZ-NH1. I only seem to be getting real-time ripping, and that seems ridiculous. My cd player is at least 32x (don't know exactly off the top of my head) and my machine is plenty fast. Ripping to mp3 would take maybe 3-5 miniutes for a 45 minute CD, and although I don't expect that speed, I would still expect at least a factor 4-5 faster than real-time. Transferring to the MD takes time, and I can accept that ATRAC ripping takes longer than mp3 since it gives better compression for comparable quality, but this doesn't seem right. Can anyone comment? Should it take this long?
