Ripping HD-DVDs and Blu-ray disks

I've recently come across a HD-DVD and blu-ray internal drive for my computer. I have, maybe two movies on HD-DVD that I want to backup, and play without the disk.
I'm fairly sure this is legal. I just want to rip my copy to my computer, in the same quality. How should I do this? And what should I rip it to to preserve quality in 1080p? It needs to be played in VLC.
edit: Well, I understand I can rip straight to an iso and then convert, but I want something manageable that still looks pretty much the same.

Well technically, if you live in the US, it's not legal, but yea, look up AnyDVD. I don't know of any free software that can rip HD DVD and blu ray.
There you go. It does need AnyDVD, though.
Well then!
You learn something new every day.
That's all you need to make mp4s from the original discs to playback on a variety of devices of your choice.
