Cons:

2. The open-source DVD ripper for Mac does not keep abreast with the latest Mac OS X Mavericks. So for those tech geeks, it’s advisable to go in for a DVD ripper for Mac that is constantly refreshed to support the newest changes, be it your Mac OS or your mobile devices.
3. Handbrake has a lot to do in terms of output format. This Mac DVD ripper freeware only achieves to encode DVD to MKV and MP4 format. The need to rip DVD to MOV, FLV, AVI, etc or put DVD on Samsung, HTC or other tablets or phones seems to be never realized with Handbrake.
4. MacTheRipper
MacTheRipper can break copy protection and rip DVD content, but it doesn't encode its rips to other formats. It just rips the DVD menu and all to your hard drive in VOB file. It also needs a third party software to convert VOB to other formats. So if you would like to rip DVD directly to the format you desire, you'd better to take a look at Pavtube Free DVD Ripper for Mac.

2. This free Mac DVD Ripper comes with a very clear manual and an intuitive interface, which can be more acceptable by those non-professionals as MacTheRipper makes it a snap to backup DVD to your Mac's hard drive.
3. MacTheRipper endeavors to rip the main feature of a 100-minDVD movie in 22 minutes and 52 seconds, which is really a shorter period of time compared with other similar DVD ripper for Mac.
Cons:
1. MTR 2.6.6, though easy and free to obtain, does not work on any version of OS X past Snow Leopard. So if you’ve upgraded your Mac OS to Lion, Mountain Lion or even Mavericks, seeking for a MacTheRipper alternative to do your DVD ripping is of top priority.
2. Seeking for the latest version of MTR is not suggested in consideration of its information obfuscation and back-alley character, which will only frustrate, confuse, and anger you.
3. Mac The Ripper only helps to make a playable copy of DVD on your hard drive in VIDEO_TS folder, which is not supported by many other portable devices. So if you want to make your DVD watchable on your iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac The Ripper is not the way to go.
