This is it's a standard store-bought DVD, this will end up copying the 
encrypted (CSS) data to your HD, which will add CPU overhead at play time.

dvdbackup (in portage) does roughly the same thing, but decrypts once, at 
rip time.  It does no transcoding so everything is at full DVD quality 
(and size). It preserves all menus in mirror (-M) mode, but can also be 
used to rip individual titles.
