They have a FAQ section that deals with the thorny legal issues we all hear about as well as expected product performance. For example:

Question- Is it legal to copy a DVD?

Answer- In some countries it's still considered illegal to copy a DVD, just as it once was to copy a music CD. Unlike audio CD's, fair use laws don't allow for copies to be made of DVDs because they are encrypted. The laws surrounding the encryption of DVD movies is currently being challenged in U.S. courts. We don't encourage or condone the use of 1Click DVD Copy to make illegal copies of DVD's.

Question- If I decide to compress the video, will it look as good as the original DVD?

Answer- When copying to a DVD, in most cases you won't see any difference in the video quality for average length (90 minute) movies. In cases where the movie is very long (over two hours), you may see some reduction in video quality.

Maybe some of us will try this software and share our experiences in the Transcoding Software Forum.
