SHRINKING MOVIES WHEN DOWLOADING ??

Wondering if anyone has heard of a program that can shrink the size of a movie when downloading.
I want to burn all my DVD's onto an external HD to stop my 3yr old boy from using the DVD's as frisbees and scratching the shit out of them :)
Most of my dvd's are copies from O/S, and seem to be around the 4-6GB. I have about 200 of them, and at that size takes about 1hr to do each movie...

So i was wondering if there is a program i can buy/downlaod that can shrink them to about 700-800 MB to save time ?

I am not much of a tech head, so please explain s-l-o-w-l-y and dont use big words.......

You can convert them to AVI.

But I don't really have the time to explain how. Best do some googling.
