    You need a program like DVDBackup.



    This will copy a DVD onto your harddrive.



    NOTE (a disclaimer if you will): you should only copy DVD's you own, and this for backup purposes only. (this is allowed under the Fair Use principle - or whatchamacallit).



    You should try a google search on keywords like DVD copy macos x.

    Yes, it is quite possible on a Mac, but please don't use these methods for pirating DVDs. Piracy is not welcome at AppleInsider.



    As der Kopf said, Google it.

    You should get plenty of info there.

    Actually, I don't think you can back-up or copy a DVD under the fair use thing. Didn't the DMCA have something to say about this?

    That's what I thought too, Jack.



    You can copy and backup *your own* DVDs, but not commercial ones.

    The MPAA said VCRs were illegal too, but the courts found they were not. Arguably DVDBackup and the like are the same type of technology as VCRs were 25 years ago.
