This breaks my FireFox (2.0.0.8) (causes a crash during startup - thread stack is actually in the QuickTimeMPEG component).

Ignore this - it appears to be unique to my install unfortunately.

Well it fixes the VBR/CBR bit rate bug in iTunes. All my CD's now import at the chosen bit rate of 256Mbs once more.

All those fools who suggested it was a new 'feature' called ABR must look fairly silly now. Most of us always said it was a bug but Apple's way is never to admit bugs and security holes - just fix them in the next release quietly.

Thanks Uncle Steve!

Am I the only one that can't get the sound to work in any Quicktime video or QT stream ever since I installed this update?

What about the Front Row and iMovie updates that also came? But the real question is, where is my 10.5.2 update that was supposed to come today?
