Clarify your question doesn`t make sense.
Download a DVD? - wget
Play a DVD (.vob)? - mplayer
Rip a DVD? - insert it where on the N900?

It's so sad that I'm only using the N900 to watch trailers (from Ovi store). Anyone know how to download movies to N900?

Transmission is a way to get movies directly to n900.

Transmission drains the battery like an alchoholic drains his pint. Download onto your PC then use the USB. My computers copying speed is about 11MB/s. DVD movies only take about 30 minutes to download using a 800Kb/s internet speed. The files are about 1.3Gb. It takes around 1m 30s to move it to the N900. SiB is the best player. Download subtitles and give the subtitles the EXACT same filename and it will open subs automatically

If you can compromise with the quality factor, you can download most of the movies and TV scoops from http://www.fzdownloads.com/. Many are available in Avi format and low size, so faster downloads.
