Thanks! What is Apple turning into these days, Real Networks? I got caught in that the other day; a reminder to upgrade and then a confusing webpage that wasn’t what they offered me in the first place. I passed on it, but wasn’t sure how to solve it, so thanks for doing this.
It’s one of the reasons I stopped using Real, that they’d screw around and confuse you with complicated download/upgrade interfaces. I expected better of Apple, at least from a design point of view, if not necessarily a respect for your customer point of view. Thanks for the help with this!

It’s even worse than it appears. If you happened to have paid 30$ for the Quicktime PRO player, and you upgrade (which you HAVE to to see certain video codecs), you loose your PRO account. Fuck you, basically.
