Hello Travis and all:
Ah, now that point in computer never never land has been reached (smile). The
PDF document indicates that one can just choose to copy the main feature
without some of the other add ons which come with dvds. Now, it says you can do
that though actually doing that is a completely different kettle of fish. You
can insert some other food if fish is not your thing (smile).
It is still ripping. Progress update still to come. In the meantime, I will
reread the PDF and see if I overlooked something. Not impossible you know
(wink).
