Roxio on Tuesday introduced Crunch, a new $39.99 application designed especially for users of the Apple TV, video iPod or the forthcoming iPhone who want to convert video optimized for those devices but don’t want to burn that content to disc.

Roxio's site mentions the following features:

* Convert DV, AVI, MOV, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, DivX, DVD-Video, Video_TS folders, and more
* Automatically add converted video to your iTunes library for easy syncing with your Apple TV, iPod, or iPhone
* Powerful award-winning video conversion technology from the makers of Toast®.

For those of us "open" to Open Source software, another option is the widely popular HandBrake. HandBrake is available for Mac, Windows and Linux. The latest beta version adds support for Apple TV and the Sony PSP.
