The answer to both questions is yes. You can do it, but if you don't
own the disc, it is illegal, technically. However, I don't think
they'll go after you for making personal copies.

I thought when I purchased my new ibook with the superdrive that I'd
be able to download/import movies from a dvd and save them to view

copyrights or anything as selling something has never been part of the
plan. I simply thought I'd be a cool way to create a video library.
Whether I stored the movies on a larger external hard drive or copied
them to disc. So I guess my question is two-fold: 1. Is it possible
to save/copy a movie from a dvd that I have either rented or borrowed?
2. Is doing this illegal?
I've briefly browsed some sites that claim to have software to support
this. But I thought better to get some direction and guidance from
people I've learned to respect.
Thank You,
