Or is a dvd like a CD, which, I am told, has no file system and thus cannot be mounted.

A DVD is iso9660 file system. Same as a data CD. A music CD has no file system. You can mount a DVD
Code:
mount -t iso9660 /dev/sr0 /mounting/point

Yes with software that plays CD's. You can also dump those tracks to file.
Code:
mplayer cdda://1 -dumpstream -dumpfile outfile.wav
I think that you are going about this way harder than it is. Dump the DVD to .vob and you'll have a file with mpeg2 video and aac audio. (Format of DVD's and digital TV)
Code:
mplayer dvd://1 -dumpstream -dumpfile movie.vob
If you have dvdcss installed the .vob won't have copy protection. Then encode to something different if you want to.
You can play a copy protected DVD or copy protected .vob (made without dvdcss) with mplayer like schneidz said. Or with any player that uses libdvdcss. I suspect that the mods are going to be on this tread shortly. We are talking about removing copy protection.
