HandBrake works much much better and is FREE - varase

Handbrake and RipIt do two entirely different things, although there is some overlap in that they can both get through some DVD protection.

A DVD ripper (like RipIt or MacTheRipper) simply remove the protections on the DVD and create a disk image or file set to be burned to DVD or further processed by another program (like a DVD recompressor).

I have never had problems with RipIt. I use HandBrake usually because it produces only the movie and it uses much less space.

I have also used successfully HandBrake to copy RipIt files.

RipIt is much faster than HandBrake.

Spoken like someone who has NO idea what these two products do, or how they are different. Next.

If you use HandBrake directly, it rips and encodes one DVD, which wastes my time swapping discs. If I rip a few hundred gigs of discs, then I can queue them up in HandBrake, so I'm using both (which is pretty normal). It's a lot easier to spend 30-40 minutes changing each disc while I'm awake and then queue them up for HandBrake to encode while I'm sleeping or away from home (in about realtime for each movie). The two apps are far from mutually exclusive. I'm encoding my entire DVD library, and I'd be wasting TONS of time if I were waiting for HandBrake to rip and encode disc by disc. RipIt is well worth the money and works better than MacTheRipper does at this point.
