Any format has the opportunity to save at loss less quality if you set the bitrate high enough, it's a matter of the particular settings. I'd suggest looking into divx, check out imtoo dvd ripper platinum and play with the settings to find a quality you're comfortable with in a size that you're happy with.
Note: you will be giving up the menus in most (if not all) compressed formats.

Jezza1340,
I use the MKV file container using an 1800Kbps video quality and passing through the original AC3 audio tracks. This will make a 1.5 hour movie about 1GB-1.2GB in size. The quality of the video is excellent and it is pretty hard to distinguish that you aren't watching the real DVD.
