Not illegal if it's for your own personal use.

I use myth2iPod. Every morning I wake up and The Daily Show and The  
Colbert Report are waiting for me on my iPod. I generally don't watch  
on the iPod, though. Usually watch it on my MacBook when I'm not  
home. I do like ripping DVDs and transcoding to my iPod. Josie and  
the Pussycats keeps my daughter entertained on long car rides - even  
on the small screen. Futurama for shorter trips. It will be great for  
when I drive across the country in a couple of months or for those  
frequent plane rides I seem to be taking recently.
