Answer 5

Go to http://handbrake.fr and download Handbrake. It's a free program that lets you rip DVDs to iPod format. When it's installed, put in the DVD and start up the program. From the list of presets on the right, pick one of the ones made for the iPod. There are four, there's two for regular iPods and two for iPhones/iTouches, and each has a low res and high res version. Pick the one you want and start ripping. This will take a while, but it's the easiest way to do it. It helps to close as many programs and things on your computer as you can. When it's done, drag the file into "Movies" on your iTunes and sync the iPod. If you did everything right, it should all go over just fine. I've done this to plenty of movies and it works great.

Also, some people might tell you that this is illegal, but it's not. It's completely legal as long as you legally own a copy of the movie (it becomes illegal if you sell or give away your copy though) and as long as you don't distribute it online.
