    •IFO files provide information for DVD player where DVD-Video disc's chapters start, where certain audio tracks are located, etc..
    •BUP files found on DVD-Video discs are simply backup copies of IFO files and are only needed if the original IFO on disc gets corrupted.
    •VOB stands for DVD Video Object. It is basically one of the core files found on DVD-Video discs and contains the actual movie data.
     Basically VOB file is just a basic MPEG-2 system stream -- meaning that it is a file that contains multiplexed MPEG-2 video stream, audio streams (normally AC3 and DTS formats) and subtitle streams.
     In order to view stand-alone VOB files, you need to have a DVD player software that supports VOB playback. A good, open source tool for this is Media Player Classic. If you wish to burn the VOB files to a standard DVDR disc, you need to have all the other standard DVD files as well, including IFO and BUP files.

    When you say download, you mean downloaading LEGALLY right? And only making backups of movies you OWN right? =)

    Most downloads from Limewire are in AVI format which is great, just download them and then follow Nero guide by alkohol which is in my sig, Good luck.
