What was the name of your first dvd that you backed up & do you remember how you felt? Complete backup, ripped, burnt, plays on your PC & played in your standalone?

First DVD Back-up--------Body Heat
How I Felt---------------Great, finally got the giant corrupt corporation by the &*#@**. Great inspiration for learning more about DVD's
Back-up-----------------Movie only
Played on----------------Standalone

I must also say learning how to do SVCD on two 700mb CD-R disks first was a big help on learning how to back-up DVD's

Think how great it is going to be if reality comes for backing-up HD-DVD and Blu-Ray in the future. WOW even a greater high.

My 1st DVD backup was Disney's Tarzan. My reaction to a successfull playback? I shouted to the world by saying "Finally!I don't have to do VCD, SVCD, and KVCD anymore!!!!"

Man, those old school days of 10+ hours of TMPGenc encoding are behind me.
