I have searched for ages trying to find the best solution for me but have failed, here is what I wish to do:

Backup all my DVDs to single files on my computer to avoid have to play wi discs etc. I wish to keep compatability, quality and most importantly surround sound. With files sizes about 3GB per movie. What program would people reccomend use?

Thanks
James

well, if you've got over 100+ movies like most people do, then you'd need a few terabytes worth of space to do so !!

each movie on average is around 5-7 gigs (thats menus and all)
do the math....

dvd shrink to compress and retain menus, sounds, extras

dvd decrypter to work around encryptions

dvd fab works and is superceded by the above

anydvd work, encryption wise.. 21 day trail, after that you can pay for it
