I'm trying to make a rip of a DVD, and it's planning on taking 26 hours to do.
I'm thinking there must be a better (read faster) way to do this.
How do you do it? what do you use?

the only way to speed it up is to upgrade your box. faster cpu+more/faster ram is pretty much the only thing that'll help.
personally, i don't really mind it taking a day to rip a movie. i drop it in my laptop at the lab, go home for the day, and the next morning i've got my divx.

My Athlon XP 1.7+ is my friend. w00t!
