Extract audio from DVD

Hey, I would love to extract the audio from my DVD "Jesus Christ Superstar" (musical), then convert the songs to mp3's.

Is there a way to do this? When I get the dvd on the drive the folder audio_ts is empty. I was hoping that directory would have a file that I could convert to mp3.

Thanks for you help.

Well, if it's just the audio track from the video you want, you can use any number of programs to extract this, for example mencoder or transcode. It would be harder (or rather, not possible without putting in a lot of effort) to do with background music from a movie.

I hope one of those threads will help, therefor moved from Multimedia to Duplicate Threads.
