Why use RipIt when HandBrake will do DVD's in one shot?

Have you ever tried RipIt then Handbrake vs. just straight from DVD through Handbrake?

Here's why I ask - Handbrake can read RipIt disc files, and it has a queue. Meaning, I can spin the DVD movie as fast as my DVD drive will go, copy the disc to a file on my fast hard drive using RipIt, then fill up the Handbrake queue, then walk away for a long time. Maybe spend half a day converting to disc files, then use Handbrake to convert them down to iTunes compatible formats.

Or, that MacRumors post looks awesome. A lot of work, but really awesome.
