Linux is your friend! You can get some great ISO rippers for Linux. Just stick a decent distro (I use Debian) on an old PC, format HD0 as a single-partition EXT2 or EXT3 filesystem, install an SSH server and a filesharing server, then mount the shared drive on your Windows box (it will appear as a network drive; I have mine mounted as the Z drive) and use it headlessly via windows, using a free Telnet client that will let you log in as root (so you can issue a remote shutdown command when you're done - I use m-PuTTY). Bung an old DVD-ROM into the Linux box and bingo! You're rippin' like a good'un.

I have no idea what most of that meant :oops:


On my old laptop I had some programme installed that was simple to use, chuck dvd in, press button, job jobbed!

1. Download vlc media player, keep it cause it's the best one anyway.

2. In vlc player, click media at the top, then convert/save.

3. Then click the disc tab, make sure the right drive is selected, it should say dvd video.

4. Leave everything else alone, press the arrow next to convert/save, then convert.

5. Then click profile, and select audio mp3.

6. choose where you want the mp3 file to save to by clicking browse.

7. Click start, once the bar is filled blue, it's finished and should be in the folder you selected.

I've had to convert before but not from a disc but i'm pretty sure this will work :)
