Well I haven’t got the chance to try every profile, but it’s really the best Blu-ray backup & copy tool for iPad Models I’ve met ever; I mean it’s ease of use, not fuss and simple to follow.
Tip: Of cause 64G iPad is not made for saving one whole Blu-ray movie. With ByteCopy for Mac and Toast, you can shrink and rip a 50GB Blu-ray movie to 25 GB disc, while the quality lost is regardless. If you need smaller file size, you can do advanced video settings.
Pros
Support latest Blu-ray and DVD, compatible with latest OS X 10.10 Yosemite, unique multi-track preservation feature
Cons
Can’t output ISO file, batch conversion not supported
Top 2. Leawo Blu-ray Copy for Mac
Price: $ 44.95
Incorporating the latest cutting-edging copy tech, this Blu-ray cloner for Mac could not only enable you to backup Blu-ray movies from various inputs to Blu-ray disc, file folder and ISO image file, but also support you to maintain the original 3D effect when copying 3D Blu-ray. Besides, it is with the ability to compress the BD50 to BD25 with perfect output quality. You can handle the perfect 1:1 disc to disc duplication without quality loss.
However, to get an iPad accepted video, you need to turn your converted DVD disc/DVD folder/Blu-ray/Blu-ray folder or ISO image file using a ripping tool like Handbrake.
Pros
You can easily understand the software and use it. And you can copy any DVD or Blu-ray Disc with it.
Cons
No support for Blu-ray to Video Converting. The processing speed is kind of slow and hope that Leawo can make more improvement. Sometime you get an error message saying invalid dvd invalid blu ray or invalid iso.
Top 3. MakeMKV
Free
MakeMKV is a nice choice for those who feel like to make lossless copy of their Blu-ray and DVD and save whatever parts you want in an MKV container.
The decryption process takes about half the duration of the movie; once it’s done, you’ll have an MKV file that you can play back with VLC or other software. If you want a smaller file size, you’ll need to convert the MKV to a smaller file – in the same format, or in a different one, such as an iTunes-compatible MP4 for playing on iPad– using a tool such as HandBrake again, which we’ll be using to converting your MKV into an iPad compatible video.
Pros
Does what it is supposed to do–rips DVD and Blu-ray DVDs to create high video and audio quality mkvs; easy to operate
Cons
If you don’t need mkvs from your Blu-ray DVDs then no, this isn’t going to do much for you
Above are my best Blu-ray backup software recommendations. Just choose your favorite to copy, backup and rip Blu-ray for all your iPad models easily on Mac. To sum up, Pavtube ByCopy for Mac is the best one to rip and copy Blu-ray on Mac for its comprehensive features, fastest speed and quality service.
If you don’t need multi-track output, Pavtube BDMagic for Mac($ 39.2 now) is enough which features in copying Blu-ray and DVD with original structure, and converting 2D/3D Blu-rays and standard DVDs to watchable video/audio format for mobile devices. (Here is the review)
Note: To play the copied disc image. Install a Mac Blu-ray Player app, choose File > Open File and then select the BDMV file in the disc image. Or you can open BDMV files with the VLC Media Player.
