Dumb Noobe Question regarding CCE Encoder

[bradesp]

I'm doing my research on backing up / Ripping my DVD collection and quality is a big deal to me. It seems that folks around here universally praise the CCE encoder as the best. The CCE encoder is obviously a commercial product and the trial version states that it embeds a logo in the encoded file. If this is the case how are folks able to use CCE as their primary encoding tool?

THanks,

They buy the basic version, if they don't have acess to the SP version.:)

I've been using CCE Basic (v2.69) w/RB and have been extremely pleased with quality. There are a few limits in Basic, primarily w/ number of passes and some settings, but overall it's a steal at $58. Eventually I'm going to look at getting CCE SP, but until then, Basic works very well for me.
