Wow, this thread took off QUICK! :)

[Edit]
I'm a dumbass. With this post being in OT (and the wrong forum no less), the amount of quick responses is expected. I retract the above statement.

New copy protections are demanding DVD Decryptor 1st then Shrink. Something about weak sectors. Heads up there is a new decryptor version as of 1-5-05. . .

actually, Decypter + NERO VisionExpres/Recode, would be better, as there are only 2 steps, and you can shrink or split the disc, Preserve the menus...

The only time I have had to use DVDDecrypter is if the disk is badly scratched. (It retries more and slows down to read errors more than DVDShrink).

Otherwise, DVDShrink does the job by itself quite well.
