I might have made a different decision than Apple, but perhaps you can understand given THEIR scope of the issue. They could have kept the QT functions but simply routed them to the new 32/64 functions, but then often a developer (could be you?) wants to take the opportunity to redesign things that either were not optimally designed or didn't pan out with the technology that occurred since it's inception. Often with software you want to start over, and I can't help but think that QT is so old that it was almost mandatory that they "start over". But again, remember it's not just age. So I get it. What they did with file management was worse - they changed from FSSpec to FSRef's, while hailing it was the best thing ever. It didn't take very long to deprecate THAT into CFURL. In contrast to QT, QT's longevity is amazing, but nothing lasts forever.
