I'm going to keep hold of the disks for now until technology speeds up the process.

Thanks for the Feedbooks tip, that was one I hadn't found and it looks very interesting.
You can rip now and encode later.
400*4.7GB fit in a 2 TB hard-disk.
It takes 5 to 15 minutes each depending on the DVD, your DVD player and your CPU.
Reselling your DVDs would easily pay for a new hard-disk (and a new DVD burner if yours is slow), and maybe even a new faster CPU?
