What is the goto software/suite for ripping DVDs these days? It has been ages since I've done any.
Are you planning on re-encoding anyways? For DVDs Handbrake can read and re-encode them directly so there’s no need for an intermediate.
If you’re not planning on re-encoding or we’re talking BluRays then makemkv is the most used and allows creating disc images, file extraction to drive, or file extraction to drive in MKV container.
MakeMKV is what I’ve been using as of late. Don’t know if it’s the go to but gets the job done in a nice, one file format.
