When i want to watch a dvd movie, i can see it directly from the disc,or first copy it to the hard drive and then watch it from there. i want to know which way will do less harm to my computer? Any help will be appreciated

Are you going to watch the movie more than once? Ripping a movie to the HD requires just as much, if not more use of your optical drive...Probably more wear and tear because no one rips in 'real time'. But seriously
