    I join the question since I was about to post a new thread about it.
    Is '#1 DVD Ripper' really number one? Is it true that 64bit CPUs can rip twice as fast as 32bit ones and if yes with what program?
    Thanks

    Try DVDFab Decrytper. The rip speed is usually limited by the drive not the CPU.

    "...what is the best software to maintain HD quality?"

    That'd be a trick, since DVDs are not HD. What format do you need to rip to? Check out www.videohelp.com for a bunch of tools.

    Handbrake + Virtual dub should do the trick.
