i have this laserdisc also, but have not ripped it either..
Do you have a DVD recorder by chance? I'd really love to get my hands on a rip of the Japanese laserdisc, and finding someone with it is hard enough :P
If you have one, would you be willing to record it for me? (If you use 1-hour mode you could do one side per disc and it would be excellent quality)
yes,
i have a capture card, and dvd-burner,
i'm still messing around with capturing video from all the OT laserdiscs
right now..
i'll keep you posted on when i can get to this....
later
