iTunes and Quicktime Abuse
I started having problems with these programs a while ago. First they stopped allowing one without the other. Then they started with the auto updates.. which would occasionally try to install new programs (Safari) I didn't ask for.. Then all my picture and movies file associations were changed without my permission. When I put them back the way I like them, they kept reverting back. I finally removed both programs, but the auto update stayed behind and kept trying to reinstall them until I removed it, too. Now I just use Quicktime Alternative. I'm otherwise happy with Apple, but there is something seriously wrong with these products and how they're handled.
