Optical drives are dog slow and that includes the speed of the door
opening and closing. Plus some games require that you have the disk in
the drive and did I mention that the door is slow. Swapping disks is
such a pain...

I want to ask this for information purposes only...why bother ripping
DVD and Blu-rays? I've done this...and frankly, I've lost interest in
doing it. But I get the impression that some here are ripping
multitudes of movies to magnetic media...I have a large collection of
Blus and DVDs, but I don't watch anything frequently enough to need it
online (like in my house). For new content, it does make some sense,
though, if you don't want to own the content you an download it...but
if I want to watch upstaris rather than down, then I just go get the
disc...I'm not too lazy YET to do that...and it's way better than
having an HD farm that sucking down juice 24/7 (it occurs to me that
cheap HDs make this all too tempting to do, though, so I can get
that). At least to me it is....

That would be cool for BD when I decide to take the plunge and buy a
BD-ROM. For DVD's I just have AnyDVD rip it to hardrive as an ISO.

Maybe one of the coolest tools I've used in forever. Instant, no
compression conversion of BD and DVD. If your running mce and your
used to archiving your content to use the movie library (or I use
Mediabrowser and MyTv) then this comes as one of the best tools I've
seen in years.
It just works.
