Anyone here backs up their DVDs?

[jamezzz122]

Well I have a vast collection of DVDs and I wanted to back them all up. I want to back them up as mountable images via Daemon Tools and also a 1:1 backup to a DVD-R. What programs do you recommend for each of the two jobs.

For 1:1 video content minus a few annoyances DVD Decrypter, burn with whatever takes your fancy. For just the video minus everything else DVD Shrink. Doom9 would be the better place to research the topic.

Edit: If the collection's vast, have you considered alternative compression schemes?

I wasn't going to back up all of them...Just a couple of rare ones that are important to me...

What if I wanted to make a hard copy on a blank DVD-R...What do you recommend for that?

You could see if this thread reaches a conclusion, though I doubt any such topic would.
