Handbrake is Mac only. I'm sure there are several tools for the Windows market, though I'm not sure what all is out there for XP. Sorry Patrick.

I've bought a few DVDs which exceptionally strong Macrovision protection on them, and <a href="http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/14414" rel="nofollow">Mac The Ripper</a> has gotten it off of most DVDs. You can use Handbrake to then compress the ripped (and stripped) files. Please give it a shot and let me know if that works out. ~ Chris Greg,

I have trouble ripping my newer DVD's for my iPod/iPhone. The copy protection results in a unusable RIP with just Handbrake. I have had to use Fairmount, which is a free tool which allows on-the-fly decryption of DVD content for convenient access. Fairmount does not perform the actual decryption, it simply forwards the data to the free VLC Media Player, which must also be installed and is used for in the decryption process. Once I mount the DVD with the free Fairmount app, and with the drivers/app of VLC Media Player installed on the mac where I am ripping, THEN handbrake will RIP virtually all my commercial DVD's. (well except CARS by Pixar, anybody know how to rip that one? I have a legit copy, want to rip it onto my 3 yr olds Mac so he does not have to handle the DVD itself, but it is uber-protected and even the Fairmount/VLC/Handbrake combo won't rip this one).

I'm downloading a trial version of this software now to review. After a 10 minute search, I was only able to turn up 2 user reviews on Aimersoft, and they were both quite bad. Also, this particular product costs $49, which is considerably different than Handbrake's pricetag of $0. I do recognize that free is not always better, and will report back on Aimersoft's DVD converter suite for Mac in the next few days. Stay tuned, and thanks for the tip! ~ Chris Thanks lazerer for your suggestion.
