Am I the only who rips his own blu rays with both lossless audio (converted to FLAC for MPC-HC playback) and uncompressed video? Sure the size can range from 14 to 32gb but at least I can put my old HDDs to good use (thanks to a SATA/USB adaptor)
Anydvd + eac3to + mkvtools and then MPC-HC for playback.
Takes about 30-40mins to copy the content on the HDD and then about 20-30mins to create the .mkv with the FLAC audio (no SSD and no quad core btw).
Playing back directly from the disk has sometimes given me troubles (slight hiccups for example) so I don't bother with PowerDVD or TMT now. TMT was decent though, but you can hardly configure anything in it and hardware acceleration isn't quite as good as CoreAVC+madVR (on my rig at least).
Edit : to cut the size down I do remove all the useless bonuses and secondary soundtracks etc I only keep the subs if the film has an original audio in a language I don't speak.
