How do I do this? Record audio track from a DVD that is playing on my

How do I record the audio track from a DVD that I own that is playing on my laptop. I am using Windows 10 and have a laptop that can play DVD's. How do I use the laptop as a recording device while playing the DVD; I eventually want to transfer the file to my ITunes and then transfer it to my Ipod to play in my car. I gather that I will need some software for this but I am sure that there is more to this than just downloading an application. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank You,

Several years ago I purchased Total Recorder, can be set to record and save to the HDD any audio being heard in the speakers or headset. It supports saving as formats such as .mp3 and .wma, etc. It allows editing such as recording the complete audio from a DVD movie [I got it to get the songs from Paint Your Wagon] then cut out clips or songs as desired and save by name. It's not as automatic as some would desire but a very useful way to get music not otherwise available. There's probably some free versions of similar programs but having one that works ended my search for others.

Probably the most reliable method using VLC and Handbrake can be viewed here:
