Answer 3

You can copy & paste it if your just want to save it.  But if you actually want to view it on your computer then you need to "rip" it.  Ripping DVDs (geek-speak for copying onto your PC's hard-drive) is good for making a backup of their content, or watching them on your PC.  There are many good freeware programs available for doing this like MediaMonkey Standard 3.
