Ipod movies

Does anyone know of a good, safe program to convert DVD's so I can download them to my ipod? I'd really rather not pay for movies I may already own just so I can watch my on my ipod. :P

The program you want is DVDFAB

http://www.dvdfab.com/

I got a Ipod Touch for Xmas and my Father in Law put me onto this program

You run the program, insert your DVD, choose the "For iPod" option, tell it which pod you're using and let it run.. take 40 minutes or so to convert the disk to a .mp4.. then load that on your iPod and enjoy..

It does MUCH more than that, but right now, its all I use it for..

Hmm, sounds like it's got real potential. Any problems with spyware or such?

No.. that's new.. looks like just the same program, just cut down with out the DVD buring tools.. looks like its just what you'd want!

Hm, seems like I may be downloading some new software when I get home. I'll probably poke around a bit more first. But that really seems to be what I'm looking for. :)

DVD Fab is awesome. I don't know how it is for ripping movies, but for copying, I know it works great.

Hmm, but 40-60 bucks for it? :P

Oh, that sucks. You have to buy one of the others to get the mobile options. bugger that... it would be 60 bucks to just get what I need. :P
