I wanted to make back-up copies of my purchased bly-ray disks. I have searched online for quite a long time but I have no idea which is the best solution. Forgot to mention I d like to save Blu-rays to MP4 for smartphones and streaming to remote PC.

Additionally,I also have run-stream from an HDMI 25' foot line($5) from laptop to TV and can watch internet broadcasts in HDTV, Get with.

if you interesting in storing BD's on HDD in Lossless quality
1)grab BD to hdd (program has free trial)
SlySoft AnyDVD HD
2) use this program to understand what BD structure is (what *.mpls is main movie etc)
BDInfo 0.5.8
3)put main movies *.mpls in this program:
tsMuxeR 2.6.12
as for this step you have your BD movie on HDD contained in one file ( its 1:1 copy)
later you can convert it in any other format -

1. Anydvd HD - the standard needed for BD movie backups
2. Get CloneBD....a new program from Slysoft...in the works but as any new program still getting updated...but better late then never...
3. Make sure to get Life Time License for both...so you can get update without having to renew when your subscription runs out.
Remember even the competitor needs Anydvd HD installed to get their program to work...
That is how I go about it.... -
Torrents do a better job of backing up my blu-ray's than I could ever do!

I've used MakeMKV for this, which converts them into the MKV format (which presumably one could then convert to MP4 with a different converter program). While you lose menus, the actual content is copied effectively, and I can play directly from the backup MKV files without the disc in the drive. Perhaps most enticingly, MakeMKV is currently free while in beta, and has continued to be updated to work with newer versions of copy protection such as AACS v51.
I tried using the trial of SlySoft's AnyDVD HD to play the same Blu-Ray which I backed up with MakeMKV, but found it to be less reliable, often crashing partway through playback. I'm not sure why, and I was rather disappointed as I thought it would do the job. So I uninstalled it, and ran MakeMKV instead (which worked fine without AnyDVD installed). Perhaps it would've worked if I'd had the full version, but I wasn't going to shell out for it if the trial didn't work reliably.
The only downside (other than the menus) is I'm not sure if MKV is lossless quality. It's not very compressed, as the 3 Blu-Rays' worth I backed up takes 62.6 GB - not a whole lot less than the capacity of three discs, and I can't tell a difference while viewing casually. But I'm not 100% clear on that question.
Overall, though, I do think Steve Jobs was right and that Blu-Ray is a bag of hurt. DVDs are a lot easier to work with, play, and back up. I'd recommend that anyone who hasn't already bought a Blu-Ray player stick with DVDs for optical media instead, at least if the intention is to play the media on a computer rather than a standalone player, PS3, or other compatible console. I nearly returned my computer-based Blu-Ray player and sold my Blu-Rays on eBay out of frustration before discovering MakeMKV. -

PC and Cloud can be your options. For users who want to transfer converted Blu-ray to your portable devices, you can rip your Blu-ray into digital formats like MP4 first.

MakeMKV has worked well enough that I wouldn't mind buying it when its beta ends.
At any rate, the video in the MKV is in H264 format according to VLC. Given the size similarities with the Blu-Ray, and that H264 is one of the supported formats for encoding Blu-Rays, I believe that means it's most likely the same as what was on the Blu-Ray itself.

For conversion to MP4, I would recommend Handbrake as free tool, and Pavtube as paid one.
What?s my choice of backing up purchased Blu-rays?
