Backing up family DVD's to Youtube - .vob format



The internet is becoming misleading.  Google searches are based on PageRank.  This means that the most popular pages are served first.  So if I search for how to upload a DVD to Youtube, Google will show me pages that state that I need to download some software.  This *used* to be true.  The problem happens when these pages become out of date.  They are still returned first during searches.



The DVD I have has a bunch of .vob files.  You can just drag and drop them into Youtube. 




It's hard to imagine that Youtube creator wouldn't provide support for popular formats.  However, if you just blindly search Google for the answer and rely on the first couple for results, I find that a lot of answers are out of date.
