    You can also download remux quality rips. Be warned: they take a lot of disc space! Hard drives cost 1.4¢/GB right now, so say 2¢/GB for a raid NAS, all in. That means each remux costs about $1 USD to store with backup… But you need to put down the cash for like 1000 movies at a time to get the best marginal price.
