Do not discussing ripping here. Mods will probably close this down!

Just because it's ripped doesn't mean that it is illegally obtained. It may be a DVD that this user owns and is making a backup copy of. That said, I'm skeptical that this is indeed true!

I'll go with harryb2448 here.

Still alive! - mods must be sleeping :)

DL burning is a dark art that works for some and not others.

Even if you own the DVD, the simple act of ripping it is illegal in the US, since copy protection mechanisms must be broken.

With that said, the OP didn't mention that it was a commercial DVD. If that's the case, we don't permit discussion of ripping commercial DVDs on this forum.
