    Please do not cross post. Once is enough.

    You wont get exact same quality but if you use enough high bitrate/quality setting you shouldn't notice any difference. Use Handbrake, StaxRip or Xvid4psp and use high quality h264/x264 profiles. You can keep the audio in dolby ac3 5.1 if you like also.

    Yes, if you convert using a lossless setting. However the files will be substantially larger than the DVD originals.

    What software do you intent to use ?
