If you have them on DVD, use a program called Handbrake. It's free and works pretty well to convert them for ipods.

i've heard some of those downloads can carry spyware. i actually tried that one and it didn't work with my computer. it's an apple. any apple users out there do this

As yally said, handbrake. Handbrake is made for both PCs and Macs. I believe it started as Mac only. I use it on an old Mac mini all the time. Works great, but on my old power PC mac it take a couple of hours to rip a DVD to ipod format.

If it did not work on your Mac, you may have downloaded the wrong version.
