I am using WinX DVD Ripper in Windows to RIP DVDs, so that I can play them directly from my HHDs.

I can of course choose to either move DVD content on my HDD, or to create an ISO on the HDD. My BD players will play both. In both cases region coding has been removed.

I can't decide which of the two makes more sense. ISO, or simply replicating the dbd directory structure on the HDD?

Any recommendation is welcome. Also, WinX DVD Ripper seems nice and has been working fine. Any other software recommendation also welcome however.
