I am currently planning on getting a DVD Burner so I can burn downloaded videos and what not to play on a DVD player. But I also want to be able to rip DVDs from friends and maybe even the local blockbuster :-D . I currently have a CD Burner Drive and will be getting a DVD Burning drive. Will this be enough for me to have a DVD and make a copy of that DvD?

a DVD reader is necessary to rip DVDs
a DVD burner is necessary to burn DVDs (and it can rip DVDs)

as for how you can do it, I can not divulge that information for it is against the rules of the board...but I can PM you the information if you want...

Doing that would be illegal, so as long as you promise you won't, you're fine.
Anyway I don't think you can just pop a disc in and copy it like you can with CDs, but I don't actually have a DVD drive so I don't know a whole lot about it.

Ripping an ISO/UDF (two different filesystems; the later is common on DVDs) from a DVD is just the same as a CD-ROM. Technically it's not illegal, since not everything on DVDs are just piratable stuff.

On *nix (note that /dev/cdrom on most systems will still point to the DVD-ROM drive):
dd if=/dev/cdrom of=dvd-rip.udf

In Germany a law was passed last year:
Unless there is NO copy protection, you may create a backup of any CD/DVD.
Programs bypassing these protections are considered illegal since then - such as Alcohol 52 and 120 % for instance - although I saw it in a store yesterday

When making backups from DVDs, ensure you have sufficient space on the partition, to the around 5 GB of free space required (since on a single sided DVD can be up to 4.7 GB of data) you should have 1 or 2 Gigs more for temp data available when copying a DVD. Oh, and shutdown too resource consuming programs to prevent a buffer underrun - although this doesn't happen that often like two years ago

there are dual layer DVDs out there (~9gb) but majority of burners right now only support single layer (4.3GB) data discs...

If you want to burn a DVD that is copy protected than I'd rather to download the nice tool AnyDVD from Slysoft.
It says to the burner that the DVD hasn't a protection so you can burn all DVD's you want.
But it's illegal.

Well maybe it is, maybe not, but we don't need to argue it here. I'm sure he's using it for entirely legal purposes.

Rather than muck around with dual-layer discs, why not get some of those dual-sided ones? It's the same as an audio tape, you just flip it over.
