How Did Stuff Get In Your Services Menu? My services menu is a graveyard of old programs I tried and abandoned. A standard Mac install doesn’t have much in there. The Services menu has a few simple commands like Open and Reveal in Finder. Once you install a few programs, this menu gets bloated. Even if you delete the main program, these services menu items stick around. Uninstalling a Mac program?...

Except, of course, the storage space. A Blu-Ray ripped movie can go from anywhere between 1 GB to 10, depending on your encoding practices, formats, and resolution. 10 GB for a movie is a lot, especially when you have hundreds of them. This is why it’s always best to minimize the storage space needed without compromising the quality (and of course, using compressed files). Which is also why you’ll be excited to know about H265, the successor to the H264 standard that a lot of you might already be using (knowingly or unknowingly)....
