if you are lazy, then get a newbie app such as IMTOO, but i fully recommend you doom9

those all in one programs to rip dvds are the right choice for people who dont really understand/dont want to understand/dont really care about quality

But if you want to make a perfect copy, there are some manuals at doom9 that will guide you how to shrink a dvd9 in dvd5.

Anyway, you should buy a dvdr dl burner, buy dvd9 media and problem solved

1:1 copies even if they are protected, thats all you need to start your dvd collection.

and be sure to visit http://tdb.rpc1.org/ if you wanna play a bit more with your drive. I STRONGLY recommend the firmware hacks by tdb. I guarantee you they wont fuck your drive.

I use Handbrake to rip DVDs and Fast DVD Copy to copy DVDs.
