Watching movies is an essential part of our leisure life on weekends. Many moviegoers have tons of DVD on the shelf. We may waste lots of time to find the DVD, specially the commercial DVDs. We have to take the disc if we want to watch movies on our travel. Sometimes the discs may be gotten ruined by scratches. We need a way to manage our personal DVDs collection and watch without disc.

Now, we can store DVD movies on your Mac with DVD-Library, a new utility that backup DVD to dvdmedia file on Mac's hard drive so we can watch DVD movies without inserting the disc.

The dvdmedia files preserves the quality, navigation and special features of the original DVD and can be played using Apple's DVD Player or Front Row. DVD-Library allows you to play your DVD backups on any computer that you own but does not allow you to share your DVD backups with others. It can help you keep track of your DVDs in particular.

It's nice to have perfect quality copies of my favorite DVDs right on my hard drive when I travel. Although the dvdmedia files take up a good bit of space, I keep my main library on a backup drive and rotate dvdmedia files on my Macbook before I leave for a trip, or simply take the drive with me. This is a great solution for watching movies on a notebook and keeping DVDs from getting ruined by scratches.

DVD-Library requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later.
