Handbrake and Blurays

    I've just backed all my (legally-bought) DVDs onto a media player for convenience. File sizes around 2-3 GB.

    To convert Blurays, what final file size should I be aiming at?

    Cheers,

    Freddie.

    This site suggests 10GB MKV files.

    I guess it depends on the display device dimensions, it's resolution (HDReady = 720P, FullHD = 1080P) and how much quality you're willing to sacrifice. Remember that ripping to any compressed format is a lossy procedure and some (or perhaps a lot ?) of quality will need to be sacrificed for a smaller file size.
