To be fair, it appears that the download links forward to Apple's website. I
still think they're a little shady, but mainly because they're scumming from
other download sites; they don't pay much attention to their appearance; and
their site was poorly-worded when I examined it awhile back. Haven't taken a
recent look at it.
