MacOS's package manager is the App Store. Which Handbrake isn't on.
It isn't on the Windows store either as far as I can tell.
Why, I don't know - maybe nobody involved wants to pay the fees to become an Authorized Developer, maybe there's a Free Software religious argument going on, maybe Apple doesn't want a program whose original function was "ripping DVDs" to be on there because of the many deals they have with the entertainment industry.
tl;dr: the program in question ain't in the operating system's package manager.

- derimagia 10y agoApp store has a lot of issues as is, I actively try to avoid the app store. I'm sure it's more secure, but security isn't everything. The issue doesn't have to do with the app store, it's being careful what you are downloading no matter what it's from.
