Not sure about PC but on a Mac the free download Handbrake, will rip a DVD and you can select which file you want it converted to ie iPod Touch.

The guy on this video sounds like a total nerd but his guide pretty much covers all the bases using Handbrake and I can vouch that it works too. Very handy.

I've been using this one for the last couple of days and I'm happy with it:

Why pay money, when you can get software free?

As said handbrake is good, but formatfactory is even better.

For those on a Mac ffmpegx is probably one of the more powerful ones...

DVD34 running in the background, and Nero Recode 2 which will rip/convert a 2 hour movie in <1hour which is one of the fastest I have found.
