Disclaimer: The Digital Millennium Copyright Act makes it illegal to circumvent copy protection schemes. This law makes it illegal to rip most commercial DVDs as they are typically protected by CSS encryption.

Now, for my $0 the best app to rip DVDs into a multitude of digital formats is HandBreak.
http://handbrake.fr/

HandBreak is cross platform (Mac, Windows and Linux), its relatively fast, multithreaded, can be run from command line, and has a great set of pre-configured settings for different devices like iPods, iPhone, PSP, media players and so on.

You can configure the rip to grab a full disk or a single chapter, includes basic subtitle support (burned into the picture), an integrated bitrate calculator, picture deinterlacing, cropping and scaling.

Some commercial DVDs that user a newer encryption do require a separate app to mounts the disk. On a Mac you can use something like FairMount.

hi, buddy ********

Ecumenic DVD ripper could convert DVD Movies to common video format, but Commercial DVDs are generally encrypted. In order to copy DVD to iPod, you'd need to break that encryption, which can be done by Daniusoft DVD ripper. It is fast and easy-to-use iPod DVD converter software, which has professional performance in converting DVD to iPod video formats MP4 (MPEG-4), M4V, putting DVD on iPod and rip DVD to iPod audio MP3, AAC, M4A with great quality and super fast speed.

Free download now>>>

All you need to do is to import the DVD, choose output format, like WMV, AVI, etc, select destination folder to save the video to your PC and click "Start". Super easy to operate.
Converting speed is fast the video quality is great like original DVD.
