Quick way to Rip a DVD

Insert your DVD into your DVD Drive of your PC/Laptop

and type the following in your terminal

dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/cdrom_image.iso

your DVD will be saved as an iso image in your current directory.


It doesn't even need to be that complicated.
These commands will work too (isn't Linux wonderful?)
cp /dev/cdrom cd.iso
cat /dev/cdrom > cd.iso
