Date: Sat, 9 Sep 2006 14:28:04 +0100 On the subject of listening to DVD sound, some folks might be interested in a program called DVD Audio Extractor (guess what it does...) It is a very simple (and accessible) utility that simply rips the audio off a DVD and converts it directly to MP3. There are some good controls, including VBR/CBR rates, and also the ability to create one single MP3 file for a movie or split it into one MP3 per chapter. One nice thing about it is that does the whole process for you once you've started it; no having to come back half-way and launch some other util.
