Free DVD Audio ripping program?
I have some music DVDs that I'd like to convert to MP3 so I can use them on my iPod. Does anybody know of a free program or application that can help me do that?
Thanks.

At the below link you can download a free and excellent program called "Audacity", and also a plug-in for that program called "LAME MP3 encoder". Download Audacity and the LAME MP3 encoder. Install Audacity, and put the encoder in the same folder as Audacity. Just prior to starting up your DVD, start up the Audacity program and on the top right you'll see a down arrow that allows you to change the default setting of "Line In" to "What U Hear"....do that. Then click on the Record button in Audacity and start up your music DVD. When the selection you want to record is done, click on the Stop button in Audacity. Now click on "File" on top of the Audacity program, and choose "export as MP3". The first time you do this, Audacity will ask you where the LAME MP3 encoder file is located. Indicate where it is. (That's the last time you'll be asked to do this). Then you can watch Audacity convert the music you've just recorded into an .mp3, and you can save it wherever you want to. Hope this helps.

Try to use the great Cucusoft iPod Video Converter Suite which can convert both DVD media and video file media to iPod video/iPod movie, such as DVD, vob, DivX, XviD, MOV, rm, rmvb, MPEG, WMV, AVI to iPod video (MP4 format). Also, it supports DVD to MP3 audio conversion and DVD to Apple TV conversion.
