6000 is a lot. Well, you know what the thing is though, if you are specializing in older material, there's really no real reason to be in any range higher than 4000 kbps (maybe 3500). Going that high does you no good because the actual DVD you're ripping (if it's say from 1997 or 2000) didn't have that high of a production anyway. I ripped a 2002 DVD for example that had an aspect ratio of 720x540 at 3800kbps by default, Ss ripping it at 6000 would do no good. These old DVDs and (and especially) VHS's, remember, were made for old school TVs like these

But, yeah, if you're talking about ripping the 1080p HD porn movies of today, 6000 is not even enough!
