So I'm happy with RipIt and would recommend it.

Virtually every DVD I've tried has failed to work with this app. Bought this to load some of our DVDs onto the iPad for our kids on car trips, but doing Compress has failed with 5 DVDs. Was curious whether Rip works any better, but alas no. Money out the window.

Ripit is simple and it works; I used the trial version to test it and downloaded 3 movies without any problems so I bought it. Thanks for a great product that does what it promises!

Otherwise, just use Handbrake.

Comments below about Mac The Ripper are overly exaggerated. The old free MTR was quite good. MTR is now a scam. You donate money and pray you don't get booted from the forum and lose access to the latest and useless versions.

I particularly like the reliability of the rip, as well as the price - a discount since it was purchased as a part of a MacUpdate bundle.

I have purchased this app back in December. When I d/l this update from here (MacUpdate) it wants a license. When I bought this app I received a direct link from RipIt to download "my" copy of RipIt. Since this update changed the registration system how do "we" obtain our license?

When i purchased it on 04/09/08 by google checkout and on 28/05/09 as part of MacUpdate Promo spring Bundle,i only recieved a direct link to download my copy of Ripit.
How can i get my license?
I tried the "I lost my licensed copy" on Ripit website but i only received the dirsct link to download.

So, it seems that there's quite a bit of disagreement on this forum about what exactly RipIt is good for. It sounds like some have had some good success on ripping otherwise hard-to-rip discs, and others have not.
Here's a specific question: how well does RipIt handle recent Pixar releases? I've been quite happy with HandBrake (and optionally Mac the Ripper), but they've choked on Ratatouille and Wall-e, and I've had to turn to enormously complex alternate routes that involved PC software, demuxing software, and DVD Studio Pro. If I could just get a decrypted disc image onto my Mac easily, I'm sure this wouldn't be such a pain.
It seems like Disney and Pixar have been putting crazy tough encryption on their discs lately...who can free these discs? Who can liberate this media to its rightful place in iTunes? Is RipIt the One?

Occasionally the result won't even play with Apple's DVD Player, and when it does, the rip will usually confound just about every re-authoring and conversion tool i try.

If RipIt claims to have successfully ripped a DVD, make sure you watch it to validate that is the case. I've found that many (about 40% of the ones I've done) do not. Often the issue is chapters are out of order, duplicated or missing.
Like other users, I have also found that other apps that I use in the workflow of converting my DVD library to watch on Plex (plexapp.com) will not work with the output from RipIt.
I think there have been a lot of very shallow reviews done on RipIt. Make sure you evaluate very carefully during the trial period before buying. RipIt, in my experience at least, does NOT work nearly as well as claimed.

When you go to RipIt's Help menu it just takes you to a feedback link.
An odd way to assure potential customers that your software works!
Why would you put the extracted RIP in a package in the first place?
I think a modicum of instructions would be a good idea for an app that has such a minimalist UI.

The most recent version of Handbrake fully supports the .dvdmedia package. We chose to use the .dvdmedia in order to make the user experience a little more friendly for people, since we all think of a movie as... well, a coherent "thing" and not a collection of files. Also, Apple's own DVD Player fully supports the .dvdmedia package, so on Leopard, double-clicking a .dvdmedia will open the movie in DVD Player and begin playing... pretty much what you'd expect to happen.
