It would still be ripping.

>>From Wikipedia without permission:

"Ripping is the process of copying the audio or video data from one
media form, such as Digital Versatile Disc (DVD) or Compact Disc (CD),
to a hard disk. While the original media is typically digital, the
extraction of analog media such as VHS video or vinyl records to a
digital format can also be referred to as "ripping" by extension. The
copied data, called "rips", are usually encoded in a compressed format
such as FLAC, MP3, WMA or Ogg Vorbis for audio or MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX
or Ogg Theora for video in order to conserve storage space."
