If it's truly not a commercial DVD, all you need is Handbrake.

Alternatively, you can use Disk Utility to make a disc image.

Absolutely, it did. We don't refer people to software that breaks encryption - because that would be illegal (at least in the US).

I prefer toast and/or popcorn for mac. They are both great programs and very reliable. I end up with very few coasters and most if the time it is a defect in the disc, not a fault of the programs.

Ah ok, apologies. I didn't realise that we couldn't mention that software at all.

Keep drinks and other liquids away from your expensive electronics!
