I bought popcorn 2 but after 2 weeks I realized that the free version of handbrake is much, much better than popcorn 2.  Just a few examples: I can include subtitles with Handbrake, there is a pre-set option to convert to AppleTv, quality is much better, and it is free.

This is for Roxio development team, it is very frustrating when you pay $50 usd and there is the same software on the internet doing the same or better job than the one you bought.  It's unacceptable that Roxio didn't update their software to at least include a pre defined AppleTv set up and subtitles.

I am still waiting for an update, I hope to be wrong with my first impression of Popcorn 2.

You don't need presets with Popcorn, you can use custom settings or ipod settings and the files work fine in the AppleTV.  

Handbrake has never worked well for me, and it free because most of the program is illegal (dvd ripping, no royalties for dolby, MPEG, etc).

I have to agree with the original post!
I am waiting for an update as well!
