MakeMKV will be the easiest option for DVDs and Blu-rays. Copying Blu-rays is technically only free for 30 days, but it's free while in beta (and it's been in beta for over a decade now). If you don't want a 1:1 copy of the disc to save some space, HandBrake is a popular tool to reencode the file.

Google

Google Search, also referred to as Google Web Search or simply Google, is a web search engine developed by Google. It is the most used search engine on the World Wide Web

I'm oversimplifying for the sake of being understood and skipping a bunch of steps, but here goes: If you grab your phone and type in http://google.com in the browser, the request is sent to your router, which checks whether it has records of where this address is. It does not locally (on your LAN), so its next step is to ask a DNS server. It takes the request from your device and forwards it to a DNS server, the DNS server's job is akin to a phonebook, give it a name, it'll give you the number (IP address). From there the device will be put into direct communication with google's IP and will receive the necessary data to display the page.
