[QUOTE="fiveightandten, post: 378598, member: 24555"] Mac the Ripper...this is exactly what it does. The files are very large though. For instance, I ripped a Family Guy DVD onto my machine tonight and one DVD with 7 20 minute episodes (about equal to a full length movie) took up close to 8 gigs. If I did all 4 DVD's for season 1, it would probably take up over 30GB of space. If I remember right a typical full length movie will take up 8 to 13 gigs. It's a novel idea, but it eats up drive space real fast. Handbrake does a good job of compressing them. But the process isn't fast by any means...ripping or compressing. Hope that helps. -Nick [/QUOTE]
