My wife has a few Music DVD's and she asked me if I could copy a few songs off each one so she can listen to them on her portable CD player and in the car.

1. Is this legal if we have the original and are using copies for our own use?

2. What ripping program could be used to pull the songs of the DVD to a CD-RW.

3. While I am at it, and I am sure someone has answered this before, but is it legal to do the same thing with your CD's if you own the original CD?
