It could have just been packaged with the update though...good old rotten Apple, do it their way or not at all.

To be fair to Apple (Ooh, that hurt ), yesterday's Mavericks update was of sod all interest to me as I'm still on Mountain Lion, as are a lot of others.

But the iTunes update applied to me too (otherwise I wouldn't have seen it). It may even apply to the Snow Leopard machines, I haven't checked them yet.

Yesterday's Safari update was "separate", but presumably included on the same update as it also required a restart.

The iTunes update doesn't, so it doesn't really matter when it's released.
