Us Mac users use handbrake, it's also available for Windows and Linux.

Sources

Any DVD-like source: VIDEO_TS folder, DVD image or real DVD encrypted or unencrypted, PAL and NTSC.
Audio: AC-3, DTS, LPCM or MPEG

Output

File format: MP4, MKV, AVI or OGM.
Video: MPEG-4 or H.264.
Audio: AAC, MP3, Vorbis or AC-3 pass-through.

Also

Chapter selection
Basic subtitle support (burned into the picture)
Integrated bitrate calculator
Picture deinterlacing, cropping and scaling
Grayscale encoding

There are another 17 presets that you can set your output for, heres just a few

Apple TV
iPod, iPod Touch and the iPhone
PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable
Xbox 360

And there's tons more you can do with it. Although it's not as quick as DVD shrink, I believe you can do a lot more with it.
