For Blu-Rays, I use AnyDVD HD to rip to iso and then strip out the extras using Clown_BD. This does, indeed, save a lot of space if the movie has multiple versions or lots of extras. Lately, it seems like I’m only saving 2-3 GB per rip as many titles aren’t being bogged down with extras. I store all of my ripped BD’s on a 20 TB unRAID server. I rip DVDs in folder format and then run them through DVDFab Decrypter to strip out the extras.
