Rip Blu-ray Guide

MakeMKV is a free program that converts your Blu-ray movies to MKV files, which can be played on most computers with the proper codecs installed.

MakeMKV’s main selling point is that it is easy and makes fairly good conversions.  The one drawback I see in MakeMKV is that you can’t use lossless audio codecs like FLAC. The high fidelity of blu-ray discs will be lost in coversion to AC3. This may not be a big deal for some though, especially if you do not have a high-end receiver and speakers.

MakeMKV has some capability to remove the copy protection from your discs though I would plan on still using AnyDVD HD, which is by far and away the best ripper for Blu-rays.
