How do I get DVD's onto the ipad

I have bought some DVD's which I would like to transfer to the ipad so I can watch them while travelling. How do I do that?

Thanks for the warning. I don't intend to share them though. It is purely for me to watch on my ipad while travelling.

Meg is correct. It is legal to make a personal copy, but it is illegal to break the encryption, and you need to break the encryption to make a copy.

Can you give us a cite for this since the DMCA still contains a clause making it illegal to use software to break the encryption.
