DVD Audio to CD?
Discussion
I guess the best way is to rip it the old fashon way.
Put the disk into your DVD-ROM-Drive and open with your Player.
Use Smart-Ripper do copy the Vob-Files to oyur harddisk.
Then use a converter like Flask and generate mp3's out of the stereo-layers. ( You will most likely get one huge mp3 file ... but that shouldn't be the problem. )

There's a tool called anydvd which decrypts the DVD on the fly, so you can work directly on the vob files without copying them to your hard drive first.
I've used it to rip the audio out of a Yes Minister DVD to create MP3s for the car. All I need to do now is to make the journey to work slightly longer so I can get an episode in each way

@ squirrelz
You are right, but I would copy the files to the harddisk first, it isn't much slower, but you can be sure that the decryption worked in the first place.

You can burn mp3's to Audio-CD's ... most burner Software ( like Nero ) can convert mp3's into CDDA on the fly.
vob-files are how the files on the DVD's are called. Like avi or mpg-files, they are called *.vob
But because of the harware copyprotection you can't simply copy them with the file-explorer.
About the tools:
SmartRipper (the tool the copys the vob files to the harddisk) is freeware. It is forbidden in the USA, but leagal over here ... simple google for it and download it.
Flask is also freeware, this can convert the files into different format. There are other tools too, flsak is commen and the one I am used to, but that doesn't mean it is the best.
If you want to cut or edit files, use Virtual-Dub, again freeware.
The only Problem is getting all the codecs you need. Tsunami-Filterpack as a good idea to start with.
However, it is pretty tricky to rip DVD's needs some time to get used to it ... better search in some other groups or with google for some instructions.
What you want to do isn't really different to ripping a Video-DVD.
