Save your CDs and DVDs as a disk image

Xilisoft ISO Maker is an easy-to-use program that will allow you to rip your CDs and DVDs to ISO format, perfect for storing on your computer, backing up your whole collection in case disaster strikes.

Xilisoft ISO Maker is easy to use in the extreme. It automatically detects the disk in the CD drive, or you can search for your files manually. You pick an output location and hit the red button. Xilisoft ISO Maker will convert your movies to ISO format for future safekeeping.

This little program has a few nice touches – such as an auto-shutdown feature – but by and large it’s a pretty simple affair, with very limited configuration options. Xilisoft ISO Maker does its job at an average speed (in tests, it took around 45 minutes to rip a movie), but it is simple and effective. For occasional copies, it’s a good bet.

Xilisoft ISO Maker won’t blow your socks off, but it does a good job at ripping movies and saving them to ISO.
