I know the majority opinion is not to do it for various reasons, but basically I started to backup the majority of my dvd collection that I created over the years since I have the time and they were just collecting dust. Turns out though I guess I’m doing it “wrong” or at least not in the original quality since I used handbrake instead of makemkv. I’m already 160 dvds in and about 40 more to go, is it worth, quality wise, going back and actually ripping? Is there a way to compare them? To clairify, I’ll be using makemkv from now on for the rest.

Use MakeMKV to actually copy the DVD. Handbrake if you want to transform it to another format/resolution to save disk space.
Honestly, with the Handbrake process so time consuming, I’ve started ripping with MakeMKV then no further compression.
Right now, disk is relatively cheap.
