Apple today released QuickTime 7.1.3 which the company says is an important release that delivers numerous bug fixes and addresses critical security issues
This update is recommended for all QuickTime 7 users and is required for playback of content purchased in the iTunes Store.
QuickTime 7.1.3 (49.7MB) is available via Software Update.

Yawn. Heh, heh – just had to…
Does it fix the DRM crack?
Does this one FINALLY restore MPEG-1 playback to the quality of 6.5? QuickTime 7 has always struggled to play good, old MPEG files (not HD) compared to 6.5 AND it seems to be directly related to the size/length of the file (ie. good for 10 MB files, horrible for 150 MB files).
Anyone else seen this?
Oh man, I don’t believe they don’t have a standalone download. I have to download these big ass updates at work, as the shared wireless network at home is too iffy. So now I can’t play the music I’ve bought from ITMS? Thanks Apple, way to screw over your customers.
Neomonkey, you can play the music you bought, but you can’t play the video you’ve bought until you update.
I found the standalone! It’s on quicktime.com, not apple.com

Hope that helps anyone looking for it……….
Apple is really showing it’s muscle with the latest update that all so happens to have security issues that went for many months without a fix.
Browsing the iTMS I’ve noticed this QT update, as well as the iTunes update is untested and mandatory for buying for purchasing content.
Apple is begining to piss me off, especially seeing that iTV device with the HDMI/Ethernet connections for HDCP content protection.
Oh our friend Steve Jobs is slowly boxing us in, enabling snitching EFI and Trusted Computing attributes, stronger and stronger DRM schemes, and basically strong arm tactics.
Then iTunes Coverflow is poor copy of the real Coverflow, slowing iTunes down so that my machine is due for the scrapheap ahead of schedual, refuse to update and I can no longer buy from iTMS.
WELL FUCK YOU STEVE JOBS!! TAKE YOUR DRM, CONTENT MONOPOLY AND IPODS SHOVED RIGHT UP YOUR ASS!!!
I’m heading for Pirate Bay, where content is free, no mandatory machine hobbling upgrades and especially NO GODDAM LIES!!!
Lets see you sell any more computers once everybody learns your Trusted Computing and snitching EFI dirty little secret.
AND WE THOUGHT MICROSOFT WAS BAD!!! AT LEAST THEY TELL YOU YOUR GOING TO GET FSCKED.
Apple just slides it right in. Well you just keep doing what your doing Apple, people are going to leave and your going to die.
Computers are expensive and free content is the lure.
Take the free content away and nobody buys computers.
Apple is going to cut it’s own throat and the MIAA/RIAA is helping them to do that.
Netflix, here I come!!!
Not Happy:
Not sure what machine you’re running that allows you to make the assumption that Coverflow is “slowing iTunes down so that my machine is due for the scrapheap ahead of schedual, refuse to update and I can no longer buy from iTMS”. I have a 700Mhz iMac G4 with 512MB of RAM (c. early 2002), which I consider to be slower than most Macs in normal use today, and it flies through Coverflow like a hot knife through butter… You should be able to say the same for any G4-based machine. And, any of the newer G3’s (800Mhz+) should be able to use it without “slowing iTunes down so that my machine is due for the scrapheap ahead of schedule“.

we have to pay to upgrade to pro AGAIN!? How many times to I have to pay for this?
