Many people like enjoy movies at home and they have piles of DVDs. So do I. I like watch lastest movie on my new Mac and it is wonderful. However, I always break and lose my DVDs and I was really sad because they cost most of my money. Luckily, I find a way to store my DVD movies on my new Mac computer and evern put it on my iPod because I use a DVD Ripper for Mac and it can rip DVDs to so many video formats, such as AVI, MP4, MOV, MKV, WMV, DivX, XviD, MPEG-1/2, 3GP, 3G2, VOB and so on.
To do this you must have a nice dvd ripper for Mac. So I find Aiseesoft DVD Ripper for Mac

Click the Load DVD button(a), find the DVD folder of the movie you want to add from your DVD-ROM, and Click Open.
Tick the check boxes(b) before the titles and chapters that you want to rip.
Step 3. Chose output profile and settings.
Selecting output format is really easy, you can chose your output format according to your devices players and the default setting works great.
For a veteran of digital player, you could customize your own settings by clicking Settings button to chose your own video resolution, frame rate, bit rate, encoder, etc.
Tips: Sample rate (Hz) = any value up to 48000 (higher value = better sound quality = bigger file)
