Program for copying Blu-ray, like CloneDVD2 does for DVD?

I just got a 12xBD-R internal drive, and might be getting some blu-ray movies for the holidays. I prefer to copy my original movie disc and keep it for backup in the case, and use a single copy that instead receives scratches, fingerprints, heat/shock exposure, and is stored in a collection binder. I think doing so is even more important given the price of a blu-ray movie/collection as opposed to a DVD disc/collection.
 
If you catch a good sale ripping to an hd might still work. And long term should come back down.

I think slysoft's anydvd hd suite can do it as well. I believe that's what I used a few years ago.
 
I use AnyDVD HD to rip mine to my HDD. It can rip a direct image of the disc to the HDD. It will not however function like CloneDVD in that it rips than writes an exact copy of the disc. (The nice thing about AnyDVD is that it also decodes the discs, although I'm sure others do this as well.) Been using AnyDVD for years now.
 
You'll need AnyDVD (similar to using AnyDVD with CloneDVD) and then try BDRebuilder. It'll make a BR clone like CloneDVD does. Look it up at www.videohelp.com for a more comprehensive look.

If you're wanting more of an all in one conversion software (to .mp4,.mkv, etc.) then DVDFab HD Decrypter will rip and transcode without having to use AnyDVD HD.
 
I used to love both AnyDVD, and dvdfab, but then I came a cross a movie that simply would not convert correctly using either tool. But I guess if all you're doing is storing the rips in their original format then I guess they might work. Of course I cant imagine why anyone would want to store 10 or 20+ GB files on their computer when 2 or 3 GB would suffice.
 
Make sure you're up to date and post in the AnyDVD forum about the movie and they will fix it. It happens all the time with new keys and other new DRM stuff that is introduced.

Honestly unless you are into piracy doing that does not make sense. Someday when 1 in a 100 of your blurays gets scratched, you can buy one new or used online for 9 bucks or less.

Basically backing up movies is like buying insurance on your socks.
 
Probably some wisdom in that. For the price of AnyDVD HD and the blank discs, you'll probably be able to buy new copies of quite a few scratched BRs.
