DVD to iso image

Suppose I have a DVD of FC10, how can I convert it into an iso image and then burn more DVD. The way to do it is to "dd if=/dev/hdc of=/home/FC-10.iso".

No doubt I need to use the above skill several times a year. Pretty practical and simple to understand if you have tried dd before. Of course, if I have two DVD read/write drives, I can do a read from one drive and then write to another. But that straight forward way of getting things done is not what I want.
