How to Quickly Backup Old/Scratched/Homemade DVD Movies to Digital Files?

If you are a DVD collector, your shelf must be filled with all kinds of DVD discs, movies, series, DV, etc. You may also often burn your own DVD to record precious memories such as vacation time with your family, children’s graduation ceremony, and friends’ birthday parties. Maybe your memory will diminish, but these discs can help you record these beautiful moments so that when you are old you can sit in front of the player quietly and let your memories be brought back to your youth. Although using DVDs to record movies and meaningful moments is an effective method, please remember that physical DVDs will not exist forever. It will disappear after about ten years due to oxidation, scratching, breaking, weathering, and other reasons. Another problem is that as you collect more and more DVDs, your room will be occupied so much that your available space becomes narrower.
