DVD to AVI

Hey,

I am looking for a free DVD to AVI program to back up my DVDs onto my external HDD. (Perfectly legit, I don't do illegal BitTorrents)

I have found several but the sites are always down or the download links are broken...

Re: Now HERE's creativity in action....

What a great business plan! :)

I wonder what happens to the people (who pay the money every year) who are not raptured... do they get any sort of refund or can they stop the money from leaving their accounts?

Re: About to buy Blackberry Curve - Thoughts?

Well I haven't had any experience using the Curve personally, but it seems like a good phone. I was just at the AT&T Wireless store yesterday and I got to play with one. I am seriously thinking about purchasing one in a couple months because I need a smartphone.

Re: Did you Buy a Phone in Q1 2008 (January-March)

going to buy my wife a Samsung A737 for Mother's Day. If it can stand up to my daughter's 8k texts a month, it should be able to handle 100 texts and plain old phone calls. I'm probably going to get myself a Blackberry Curve. I've been looking at them for a while and have decided the time has come....
