I've had mixed results with DVD::Rip.  It seems to do very well with 
shorter clips, like cartoons, 30 min episodes, etc.  But when I try to do 
a whole movie, it tells me my ETA is about 90 min or so, and then about 8 
hours later it'll still be going, with an ETA of -690minutes or something.

HandBrake is a windows app that is supposed to work well, and is GPL.
