Actually once you get the hang of it.. it's not hard at all... Well, again, with Linux since that's what I know.
It just takes about 2 hours from start to finish.. I just plug in a DVD into my DVD drive.. run the one script I posted here.. and a short time later I have a 500MB or so avi file that I transfer to my Tablet.. which can then view it with no issues.
Using DVD Shrink (or K9 Copy for those on Linux) - you can go from a DVD to a avi file onto your machine that isn't optimized for tablets.. but then just use the converters online to make them tabletable. Like This.
Really.. if you got 2 hours.. it's quite easy. One of those cooking shows.. "Set it, and Forget it."

To "copy" a DVD to your HD you will need a program like DVD Shrink. This will "Backup" the DVD to your HD.
A good place to start with DVD Shrink is the WIKI
With today's size of harddisks, you can also keep byte-by-byte copies of DVDs to backup without loss of quality and keeping the DVD menu. Players like mplayer, totem, xine, and (I think) vlc can all play from DVD images created with
Code:
dd if=/dev/dvd of=my-dvd-image.dvd

I think libdvdcss, which performs decryption for many (all?) open source DVD players, can usually figure out the keys anyway. But it's probably not the ideal solution.

I did not experience any decryption problems with DVD images so far.

I finally purchased an n800 internet tablet today on ebay. When ripping a DVD (I think I found a good program from download.com), what is the best format to rip to that plays the best on the tablet? Also does anybody know what format Amazon video-on-demand uses and if it's playable on the n800? I have some Pepsi points I can spend there.

I hope at least I could find free wifi, I know most aiports they charge a lot.....
About torrents yes, you are right is not worth the effort, never mind the IP tracking but the crap that is attached a lot of virus and bugs you have no idea what you might get.
