I recommend DVDShrink for ripping DVDs. Even if it weren't freeware, it would be worth paying for. Very easy to use. I've reauthored and ripped a few DVDs to my hard drive and it works great. The only thing it can't do on its own is burn a backup; you need to have Nero installed so it can link up with it and burn a disc.
I'm planning on building a media server at some point so I can rip and store all my DVDs on the server, then play them back over a network using PCs set up at each TV in the house. The only thing keeping me from doing it right now is the cost of storage (probably $2K US just for the hard drives alone).
