Andrew's pick: Handbrake

HandBrake is an open-source, GPL-licensed, multiplatform, multithreaded video transcoder, available for MacOS X, Linux and Windows. It can rip almost any DVD or Bluray-like source which is NOT copy-protected. It supports many common formats including H.264 (x264), MPEG, AAC, AC3, and more. Advanced options make it even more powerful by letting you select chapters, subtitles, deinterlace, and so on.And because it's GPL-licensed, you can use it completely free.
