  As above.
  
  Any idea how to convert the CD to .ogm, .avi or .mpeg so that I can store it on my computer?

  In case you didn't know, the files on the CD that you buy are in .DAT format.

  Actually, just drag and drop.
  
  Erm, what do you mean by converting the CD to .ogg, .avi or .mpeg? You mean the .DAT video files?

  1)Put both .dat files you want to merge in a new empty folder.
  2)Right click and create a new text document.
  3)Open the text document to edit it.
  4)Type "Open first .dat file, when finished, open second .dat file."
  5)Close and save text document

  The several .dat files were different episodes.
