How to rip a DVD to your iPad?


One day, when I was going to UK to visit my friend, I was wondering what I can do on the long and boring time in plane. Finally I had a good idea, watching movies and what I have is an iPad and bundles of heavy DVDs. How can I combine them perfectly together? I Google randomly and finally found a way to killing my time on plane. If you also have the same question, here are some easy-to-follow instructions for ripping a DVD to your iPad. Hope this article will help you easily also enjoy the time on plane.
Ripping a movie to your iPad seems like a tough job, but it's actually pretty simple with help of specific software. There are a lot of ways to do it and a lot of different software, but my favorite method uses a program called Any DVD Cloner Platinum, since its friendly interfere and also easy-to-use. I am not a computer whiz and I hate to analyze software. The long-time analyze will kill my interest and drive me crazy. I tested a few of software and find Any DVD Cloner Platinum is the easiest one. It's pretty easy to use, and has both Windows and Mac version. The help content on the software "Help Contents" will show you step by step, but you can follow along with these instructions.
Note: The legality of ripping DVDs is a bit confusing. It is totally legal for you to rip media that you own for your own, fair use purposes. You can read more about the legality here.
