Because the encryption schemes have changed quite a bit 5 years. A lot of the newer movies don't work with it. If 2.6.6 works for what you need no need to pay to upgrade though.
At my first try, the process took 30 min. MTR is a work in progress. After this debut of 4.0 they are already receiving and making a list of tweaks and things to do to make it better.
RipIt is okay. I bought it in a bundle. It does not appear to have any "options" and I've had two DVDs it would not process. Can't remember what they were though. RipIt wanted me to submit the name automatically, etc. but I was a little reluctant*. I'll check out their forum to see what's wat!
*I've used MTR for 4 or 5 years -- can't remember -- and feel somewhat better about the way they try to keep things secure, etc.
I think I was not very clear in my post. [So what else is new?]
Repeat with amplifications:

I have other apps I use for other rip related tasks:
DVDRemaster, DivX Converter, FairMount, VLC, HandBrake, Flip4Mac, QuickTime Pro
RipIt had forums up, but I think they prefer one on one contact.
I've never had any disc choke RipIt, and I've burned a couple things with toast 7 without any problem. Are the discs that are failing in bad shape? With the reviews it's been receiving it can't only be me with the luck
oh, and I use it with the .dvdmedia extension …handbrake, toast, and PS3 media server all work with it.
