Top 3 Blu-ray rippers

Trough surfing the Internet for some time, I’ve collected dozens of Blu-ray rippers developed for Windows user. With the special intention of figuring out which one is the best of all, I’ve tested nearly each of them, and finally pushed out this comment to show my own opinion about the top 3 Blu-ray rippers summarized by myself. Hope it will be of some help for you, and any criticism is appreciated. Now, let’s have a look at these 3 BD rippers one by one together.

No.1 Pavtube Blu-Ray Ripper



Pavtube Blu-Ray Ripper is the best one among all the splitters I have tested. It is an independent DVD and Blu-Ray ripper with Windows 7 support, which is capable of decrypting unprotected and protected DVDs and Blu-ray disks without the support of third party software.

Pavtube Blu-Ray Ripper can rip and convert your Blu-ray movies and general DVDs into other popular audio and video formats like AVI, ASF, MPEG, MP4, WMV, MKV, MOV, FLV, SWF, RM, 3GP, AAC, AC3, MP3, OGG, WAV, WMA, M4A, etc., so that you can playback them on your beloved portable players like iPod, iPhone, Apple TV, Zune, Blackberry, PSP, Creative Zen, Xbox, etc., or import them to Sony Vegas, Adobe Premiere to make your own movies, or do something else as you like. Moreover, it has a unique option called “Copy”, through which you can directly backup your DVD .vob files and Blu-ray .m2ts files to the hard drive of your PC or an external hard drive, and still keep the format of .vob and .m2ts without any quality loss.

Additionally, this Blu-ray ripper allows user adjusting video and audio parameters like bit rate, frame rate , sample rate, aspect ratio, audio channels, etc., that means you are able to compress the file size of your Blu-ray discs according to your own requirements.

Best of all, it is really affordable, only $49 US dollars, the cheapest of all the BD rippers I’ve ever seen.

No.2: AnyDVD HD



AnyDVD HD comes with same functionality as AnyDVD, but with additional features for full Blu-ray Disc and HD DVD support, including decryption of Blu-ray (BD+ and AACS) and HD DVD (AACS) movies.

By comparison, it lacks some functions that Pavtube Blu-Ray Ripper has, namely, it does not support adjusting customized settings like bit rate, resolution, etc, also changing sub-title and audio track are both unavailable.

AnyDVD HD is good at removing all sorts of BD protections, but when it comes to file size compression, it can not do anything about it.

It will cost 63 euros, equals to $92 US dollars, much expensive than Pavtube Blu-Ray Ripper and the later rippers.

No.3: Top Blu-ray Ripper



It is capable of decrypting blu-ray disks to all the popular video and audio formats, like FLV, SWF, MOV, 3GP, 3GPP2, MKV, AVI, MPEG, MPEG4, WMV, RM, etc. Moreover, it supports previewing the movie before ripping, clipping the movie freely, snapshot the images in the preview, automatically shutting down the computer, etc., and supports batch ripping. All these functions are all had by Pavtube Blu-Ray Ripper.

However, compare with Pavtube Blu-Ray Ripper and AnyDVD HD, Top Blu-ray Ripper can not decrypt Blu-ray (BD+ and AACS), and remove region codes. Furthermore, the same with AnyDVD HD, it is unable to select Audio track language as well.

Its price is $69.9 US dollars, higher than those of Pavtube Blu-Ray Ripper and the later Earth Bluray Ripper.

It will spend you $49.99 US dollars.

It is well known AnyDVD has established its authority in Blu-ray ripping, especially its upgraded version AnyDVD HD, which comes with additional features for full Blu-ray Disc and HD DVD support, including decryption of Blu-ray (BD+ and AACS) and HD DVD (AACS) movies.


However, with the release of Pavtube Blu-Ray Ripper, AnyDVD may have to yield its leading place to this new-coming promising ripper, because this program is definitely surpassing AnyDVD in many aspects, such as allowing users to customize audio and video settings of Blu-ray, including aspect ratio, bit rate, frame rate, sample rate, codec, and channels; enabling users to change languages of subtitle and audio track; providing edit functions like cropping, trimming, adding watermark, audio replacement, special effect; splitting BD to other video formats, etc.
