Don't forget that most DVD films are dual-layer, so each layer will result in 
a 4.7Gb file.  You'll either need to use something like dvd::rip to compress 
it down to half size or burn it onto DVDs.

If you take the latter option, let me know how you did it; I'm still looking 
for the easiest way of doing this.
