For backup, I assume?
Handbrake will rip DVDs to movie files, iPod video files
You can use MacTheRipper to rip off the VIDEO_TS folder, but you'll need to buy Toast to burn these files to a readable DVD.

Thanks Guys, I tried Mac the Ripper with great results. Will have a look at the others over the next few days. If anyone has any other suggestions, please let me know.
Thanks.

Used for backups only of course.
