I rip multiple VOB files because I take just the tracks I need off the
DVD to save hard disk space, I only want the movie and the english 5.1
sound track, the additional sound tracks, trailers, menus, behind the
scene extras etc. just stay on the disk.
Maybe I just have to bite the bullet and rip the whole thing, or find a
VOB combiner, If I have the wrong tools for the job then I'm happy to
change (fortunately I've not ripped many DVD's yet)
