Yeah, he can't tell you either for legal reasons or because he doesn't know. The answer is that it is absolutely possible and I have been doing it for a while now. Download a program called Handbrake (http://handbrake.m0k.org/), which is free, and rip them to your external hard drive. It always helps to have a newer Mac too (I have a PowerBook G4 and OSX 10.4.

You are exactly right, it is for legal reasons.
Of course you can rip your DVDs to Mac.
And the only people that that bash Macs are the people that have either never used one or are too cheap to buy one.
The Mac is vastly superior to any PC running Vista.
I use a PC but I run Linux.
I would never contaminate my computer with Windows as the primary operating system.

you have named the suited for ripping and burning. (of course you like the maximum recent variations of MactheRipper and Toast Titanium to handle the maximum recent encoding innovations.) the only different option is to certainly purchase the DVDs quite of illegally ripping leases, or originals belonging to somebody else.
