Yeah, I thought iTunes was annoying and was determined to keep using Winamp, but then I realized how bloody simple it is (so simple it's complex) and began to share music, and then just gave up and joined the cult that is Mac o.@.
But Quicktime...ick. Most horrible piece of software I've ever used. Mplayer and VLC can play *most* .mov formats and are about fifteen gajillion times better (and yeah, that's a technical term XD).
And I think you're right about plots. There are only so many in the world, so it's all about execution, not necessarily originality. Especially when "originality" means doing crazy-ass things that don't really make sense just to confuse the viewer/reader >o>.
