So now if you want to install Quicktime on your comptuer because some person on the other side of the world decided to encode their video in Quicktime, you must download it WITH iTunes. There is no Quicktime per se anymore at Apple. Just Quicktime with iTunes. I do not iTunes but who cares, really?
I am lucky to have found an old CD with a still relevant version of the Quicktime installer so I am spared, but Apple is taking every page from the book the Microsoft wrote apparently. We own you, suckers!
