Coming late to the party, but I'm another vote for AnyDVD-HD and MakeMKV. MakeMKV gets a bit grumpy that AnyDVD is there (it tells you it's unnecessary, but I think it is), but it works a treat. You just rip the titles you want off the disc (no menus, trailers, copyright warnings or other guff), and if you want to reduce the size further you can select only the soundtracks and subtitles you want.
Doing that I got a 40GB BluRay of Star Trek down to a 30GB .mkv with *no* loss in quality. And all I lost was soundtracks in languages I don't understand - score!
And another thumbs-up for .mkv containers - one file with everything I want; it's just so convenient.
