For ripping DVDs, even to iPod, you have to get Handbrake.

Some awesome apps there, cheers everyone

One I wold like, on my PC I use Crimson Editor as a text editor for website dev. Unfortunately it's not available for Macs, what is out there as a good alternative?

IMHO, BBEdit is still the premiere Mac text editor for web development. I use it, with an add-on script from John Gruber for PHP syntax verification. Text Wrangler is its free brother. There are others, though. TextMate is considered the pinnacle by many, but I've never go around to trying it in anger. Coda seems to be gaining some traction for web project workflows, though I'm not personally impressed.
There is also Xcode, of course - Apple's free development environment for a wide variety of languages, and they also provide Dashcode, which supports a HTML/Javascript/CSS development environment.
