CNET Editors' review
AoA DVD Ripper sports an interface simple enough to use without consulting the Help file and powerful enough to batch rip DVDs and convert them for portable devices all in one fell swoop. It can also rip specific and user-defined scenes from movies, making it eminently useful in grabbing a particular scene for further study or enjoyment.
The spreadsheet layout is complemented not by tabs, as is the current style, but by helpful numbered buttons and steps. Export formats include the basics like AVI, WMV, and MPEG, as well as FLV, MP4, VCD, and SVCD. You can also use it to extract audio tracks, great for grabbing those memorable quotes. The audio codec used is user-determined, as is the video codec, giving the solid program a bit of a boost in the customization department. You can also set the aspect ratio and tweak other settings if need be.
Users have noted that their customer service has been quick and responsive in the past, and that the registration code works for at least several upgrades--if not longer. All of this makes AoA a highly recommended DVD ripper. Hopefully future editions will support the nascent Blu-ray and AoA will make it to the next generation of movie lovers.

"Plagued with audio sync problems"
Version: AoA DVD Ripper SE 5.3.1
Pros
Works on old DVDs
Decent interfaceCons
Cannot get past audio sync problems even with the suggestions on their support page. They have four options for "Audio Problems" and each produces results worse than the last.
Sloooooooow. It takes hours to rip a DVD and I have a modern, fast computer with a ton of RAM. It takes 8 minutes to rip a 2 minute segment.Summary
This software would be exactly what I need to get DVD movies onto my Xoom, if it worked. I've tried every suggestion from support and read message boards for days. Tons of people have been having the same problem for years, but they're apparently never going to fix it.
