I wouldn't presume to think I know the details here, but as far as I can tell the plain mount command treats it like a device, while using the loop device treats it like a file.
It should still be possible to read from the CD like normal, but any CD-specific fucntions will likely be disabled, although those are probably implemented as ioctls anyway.
