Is there a simple way to record from DVD to CD? Have a number of live music DVDs that are not available on CD. The Live 8 DVD would be one.
BTW, fascinating interview with Bob Geldof on RTE about what went on behind the scenes before the momentous gig - especially the efforts to get Gilmour, Waters and Mason to re-form for one of the highlights of Live 8.
Do you have a CD burner and a DVD player on your PC ??
Last time I did this the audio had to be ripped from the VOB files and it wasn't a particularly simple task. However there are probably tools out there for it at this stage -- did you Google for obvious stuff like "rip dvd audio"?

It is a fairly straight forward thing to do.
Connect your DVD player to the computer, which you can do from with a midi to phono cable (i think that's what it's called, the red and white cable connections at one end and phono connection at the other, they're about €5 in shops) and connect it to your computer via the phono input (probably has a mic logo above the input).
You will need suitable software, like Sound Forge (which is what I use) and simply record all the sound you wish. You can then save it as a WAV file which you can directly record to CD, or using SoundForge you split teh whole file into various tracks, even have fade ins/outs etc and you should be able to make a perfect CD of whatever DVD you want.
Won't he get an analog signal that way? Ripping from the VOBs creates a digital copy and doesn't require him to hook anything up to anything like...
