    As an alternative, CeX have both in stock on DVD if you've a player or a computer with a drive.

    Total cost including delivery would be about €12 for the two. Easier to back them up to USB from disc anyway, but you'd have the DVDs to put on your shelf too if that was enough.

    You'd need to use a tool to dump your DVD to a computer removing its DRM, and then a tool like Handbrake to create an MP4 or MKV that you can put on USB.

    You'll need to look elsewhere for the dumping tools as I assume their discussion is not allowed here - however, if you type "videohelp DVD decrypter" into a search engine, you should find a site that can help you.
