Apple: Same Old iTunes-Update Crap

I thought Apple had stopped pulling this crap when they inveigle you into updating iTunes (an, inevitably, piling on more DRM crap), but no. When I went to update iTunes/QuickTime two days ago, Apple Software Update defaulted to installing Apple software that I do not want: Safari and MobileMe Control Panel (see illustration).

Yes, if I had blithely clicked the install button without checking what crap Apple had bundled with iTunes, I would have had my computer infected with Safari and MobileMe.

'Course, iTunes is crap to begin with, but I'll save that rank for another time.
