“How do you supersize a simple music manager? Ask Apple.”
“It takes a supersize helping of chutzpah to create an ad that criticizes Windows for its “bloat” and then deliver an upgrade with as much unnecessary junk as this one.”
“And finally, decide whether you want to install Apple Software Update. Given the history of serious security flaws in QuickTime and iTunes, it’s crucial to remain up to date with patches for all Apple programs you choose to install.”

I’ll be following the comments to see what the fanboys come out with to counter this.

Just went to update iTunes after reading they’ve brought out 8.0.1. Now, I currently have 8.0.0.35 so going to 8.0.1 shouldn’t be a large update, maybe only some bug fixes etc
The download is said to be 73mb in Apple Software Update, when I clicked to download it it does a 12mb download of something?!? then it starts the 73.12mb download.
For an update that big there has to be one heck of a lot of things going on!
I find that nearly all mac programs are bigger.
I use Spaces and I have 2 programs open in all spaces - one is Adium, the other is Activity Monitor. I use the latter much more than the former.
