Whether you want to watch a movie on your iPod or back up your too-easily-scratched DVDs, DVD ripping is a mysterious realm for many. Even those in-the-know find it difficult to keep up with the best tools for the job, especially in the face of increased copy protection. Today we offer you the best dvd ripper software and free dvd ripper mac.

Handbrake is a dvd ripping software with a strong emphasis on not just ripping media but recoding it for playback on computers, portable devices, and other non-disc based systems. Handbrake can help you convert DVDs and other MPEG-based video into MP4 and MKV files. You can tweak settings like video frame rate and audio codec playback to your heart's content with Handbrake, and even batch encode all your media at one time to make filling up your iPod or other device relatively painless. The one major shortcoming of Handbrake is that it doesn't have any copy protection removal tools built in, which means you may occasionally need to use a 3rd-party stripping tool to prepare your DVD for conversion.

There are many iPad apps available in the web but finding ones which are useful at the same time stable, is not easy. Because we have already made it our concern to find something anything useful, we decided to share with you the best iPad entertainment apps for your amazing tablet. These iPad apps are not only the best but also very popular in the web now. We hope that these article can help you in your search for apps that truly rock! If it does please share this article to your friends so that they too can have these apps.

1. Yahoo! Entertainment

This is a great free application from Yahoo that provides you with a lot of information about any TV shows that are currently airing or are about to air. You can plan your TV viewing using the interactive Program Guide, watch free videos provided by Yahoo and read the latest news in any category using this iPad application.

2. ABC Player

ABC Digital has thankfully jumped on the whole Internet TV bandwagon (a lot of other companies are also doing it) and not only have they created an online streaming channel, but also released their own apps for desktop computers, and now the iPad. Kudos to them, because thanks to this app, you can freely stream their channel right onto your iPad at very good quality and speed, and watch some of their best shows (and sadly, commercials) whenever they air.

3. Marvel Comics

Marvel's comic reading application or the iPhone has become very popular, but due to the small screen, it's not that comfortable to read the comics on it. Now the iPad is in a totally different league. With its large screen and 1024×768 resolution, you can easily view and read full page comics in a comfortable manner, like you were reading the actual paper magazine.

4. Ocean Blue

Ocean Blue is an excellent application (some people call it a game) for relaxing and learning a lot about aquatic life. The game has excellent 3D graphics of underwater sceneries and fish, and you learn about them as you sort of swim along them. Children also love it and it's better for their brain than some shooters or even racing.

5. Mixr

This is an amazing unique (for now) application that replicated the function of a DJ turntable! Thanks to the iPad's great touch screen, you no longer have to spend $2000 for a turntable to create a nice DJ mix party at your home or local club. And in conjunction with other apps, the functionality can be extended by a very high degree.

The iPhone 4S is like its earlier version as far as external features are concerned. However, with the new processor and A5 chip and iOS 5, iPhone 4S is the best gadget in the market for game lovers. Now playing a game in your iPhone 4s set will be faster with cleaner, crisper graphics. Frame rates, game loading, and launch times are better as compared to iPhone 4 version. We choose 5 best iPhone 4S games for you.

1. Dead Space

Dead Space should be a household name to any hardcore gamer. The series offers such a compelling horror feel and story that the iOS game is a strong companion to the console versions of the game. Dead Space on the iOS was made to promote and hype up the launch for Dead Space 2 but managed to stand out on its own as a great horror title, with crisp graphics and dropping onscreen buttons for a full view of the game.

2. Machinarium 

Machinarium is a rare game that stands out in a sea of clones and sequels. First making its release on the PC back in 2009, Machinarium has finally made it's way to the iOS. It plays very much like an old school point-and-click adventure. Needless to say, it fits right at home on the iOS. 

3. Rage HD

While Rage has just launched to consoles, Rage HD has been out for awhile to offer players a small teaser of the full title. Even though the game has already been released, Rage HD is still a great game to pick up and play for the iPhone 4S. 

4. Asphalt 6: Adrenaline 

Asphalt 6: Adrenaline is a racing game. While I'm unable to expand too much on what the game is about, I'll say simply that it's a great game for what it offers. 

5. Spider-Man: Total Mayhem

Developed by Gameloft, Spider-Man Total Mayhem lets you experience a day in the life of Peter Parker. Take on some of the daily tasks and errands that pop up in the city as you swing from building to building. While this game may not have much of a storyline (or character development, for that matter), the web action and boss fights make up for it.
