Considering the accepted ripping process for a DVD involves legitimately decrypting the CSS for playback and jacking the MPEG transport stream from RAM, writing that to disk, and optionally transcoding, I don't see what this is going to change at all. So the original DVD will have to be in the DVD drive from which the ripping is taking place.... It's, uh, already there? You know, so we can read the transport stream.
Bring it on.
