I need a good program that will copy my DVD video to my computer and convert it to WMV or AVI in high quality, with no distortion to the sound or video. No trials, i already have several. I want something to keep.

I assume, you're using Windows? In that case, Google should help you find what you desire.

However, make sure the DVDs aren't copy-protected - if they are, it's illegal (in a lot of countries) to rip them to your computer. Also, I'm sure a lot of these programs will not work with copy-protected DVDs.

Personal opinion, not Bytes endorsement:
I've had good luck with the Plato line. I have the DVD copy and the DVD ripper. I have two SATA DVD burners and it does a good job of copying from drive to drive. The DVD ripper does a good job of taking DVD's and converting to iPhone/PS3 etc. I'm especially happy the DVD ripper handles TV on DVD well, where you can specify episode(s) on a disc.

It has a couple oddities, but what copier doesn't?
None of them seem to copy Disney, for example.
