I found a program called MediaCoder that appears to use all four cores, and is useful for ripping DVDs, and is free (Y).
There is clearly a need for Intel to avoid waiting for AMD to catch up, for them and for us - the consumers. It will be interesting to see if Intel can learn from AMD and combine the benefits of onboard memory controllers and "native" quad cores with their huge Core2 advantages in their future processors.
It is sad for me that Intel is now releasing stock-clocked CPUs that are faster than the one I own, but it had to happen eventually.
