Well, I have decided that I am moving my DVD collection onto my external HDD so I can finally remove some clutter. I am starting now, so that when I get a new MBP it is already set up and I don't have to mess with encoding, blah blah blah, at that time. The problem is that I have a PB G4 1.5 GHz 
While setting up my Handbrake and using high quality and two-pass encoding it sometimes takes longer than all night While sitting at my desk, only using Safari because I don't want to sap CPU from my encode, a thought occured to me- is there possibly a service that does this for me? Like I bring in a box of DVDs and my external HDD, tell them the quality I want and come back in a week? I was thinking you MP 8 core guys with 8/16 GB of ram and mult optical drives, you could probably have this running in the background and not even notice, not to mention get it done REAL fast. If there is anyone in buffalo area with said capabilities.....
