This guide walks the user step by step through a DVD-ripping process that formats the resulting file so that video-enabled iPods will play it. The program is Handbrake. Not being a Mac user I know nothing about any of this, but I do think people should be able to make personal use copies of their movies and carry them in iPods. Mind you, ripping a DVD for any purpose is illegal under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The Digg user who posted this page speculates that a podtorrent sote would be nice.
