ISO or VOB for ripping DVD Movie collection to Hard Drive

OK all you clever bods :-)
Need a little help/opinion,s
I,m planning to rip my own DVD,s to a set off hard drives I have in a
4u hard drive enclosure I have connected to my old server pc , so that
I can use XBMC on my origional chipped xbox to view them via my
Panasonic projector

I,ve been reading up on the merits off both formats , but i,m still
leaning to the ISO.
I use DVD Shrink , but set NOT to compress the ISO , so as to keep the
quality very good.

I have tried it on the xbox via the Projector , and the quailty seems
fine , including the Dolby Digital sound .

One more thing I have a Component to HDMI Converter box attached to
the XBOX so that I can feed the PJ HDMI Signal, and that makes it look
really great, much brighter.

Any thought,s on which format to go with would help
So far Ripped about 10 movies to ISO an the XBMC seems to be great

I know , , I,ll need a few BIG drives !!!
200 + movies
