LOLOL. Thanks for the laugh. I needed it.

Step 1: Rip DVD (MakeMKV, or others)
Step 2: Have deep philosophical discussion on the ethics of your actions
Step 3: Use any video editing tool to trim out the parts of the file
you don't want.
Step 4: (optionally) burn to DVD as playable movie ... (preserving the
menu content isn't possible at this point. That ship sailed when you
ripped it).
Step 4a: Play digitally with Plex.
Step 5: Explain to your wife (or significant other) that it's a hobby,
and not stupid, and if you upgraded the computer (server) Plex would
play her Hallmark movies and RealHousewives episodes better ... (it
won't, but she doesn't need to know that).
Thanks,

I always laugh with new format introductions by the media cartels
to get people to buy the same thing all over again, now these
streaming services, and still somehow get fed ads for your
patronage. Or I can just download a clean, perfect version of
that already in about 2 minutes of effort from piratebay. Unless
you really feel some guilt or enjoy the technical practice of
ripping video, just download it using a vpn to some random place
and save the effort someone else already did.
I haven't paid for media or seen commercials in 25 years, and
rather spend for new hard drives and bandwidth over a new movie
I'm going to download on said hard drive, watch exactly once (if
that), delete, and forget. Apparently people like me haven't
ruined the business that the Disney's and the other mega media
cartels go out of business yet and still maintain record profits.
Go figure.
