HandBrake Lite is a horribly-mangled abomination of HandBrake, jettisoning its non-crucial features with the one-track goal of creating iPod-sized movies from DVDs.

Here are some key features of "Handbrake Lite":
You only really need to click two buttons to rip a DVD for iPod. It's as easy as that.
Less stuff to read, and fewer confusing words.
All videos are automatically resized to 320px wide. Widescreen movies have any black bars properly cropped before conversion.
Smaller interface, easier to stash away on your screen somewhere.
Universal Binary for Intel Macs!
Expandable window gives people more advanced features. I don't know why people would use these instead of regular ol' HandBrake, but they do. Weirdos.

Limitations:
Want to use H.264 or bigger image sizes for better TV playback? Tough.
