The second is iToolSoft DVD Ripper, also available for both Windows and Mac. The Windows version's activation code can be found in a text file included with the download. If you go for the Mac version, you'll need an activation code (BD-TGTXUVYO-OONQRP). The first is Digiarty MacX DVD Ripper Pro, which, its name not withstanding, is also available for Windows. Rippers often sell for $30, $40, or even more-but I have a pair you can have absolutely free, no strings attached. Not if I have a good DVD ripper, which copies movies and TV shows from the discs I already own and converts them to other formats (like, say, iPhone-friendly MP4). Do I really have to spend more money to buy or rent them from Amazon or iTunes? Let's say I own the box set of TV's most criminally canceled show, "Firefly." Now let's say I want to watch some episodes on my iPhone.
