Hi I'm the happy owner of an iPod Video, but I'm a little unhappy with having Quicktime Installed to charge my iPod through the USB, are there anyway around this problem?
Where I can charge my iPod without having Quicktime installed?

Yeah, read somewhere that I can't have iTunes installed without Quicktime, damn!
It's because I don't really use Quicktime, just think it's idiotic of Apple to bundle iTunes with Quicktime, iTunes is a great program, but a little slow.

You cannot uninstall QuickTime as iTunes will not work! iTunes is just an interface without it. Quicktime is the actual media player that plays your video/music, but through iTunes.

Unfortunately, you need to have Quicktime installed & running in order to use iTunes..

I found out a way to not having Quicktime running in the background, I deleted the Quicktime boot file, I'm not rid of Quicktime, but now It at least doesn't use unnessecary resources ;)

Well, you need Quicktime because iTunes uses the frameworks for media playback. So Quicktime is still running..

Think of iTunes as a really fancy interface for Quicktime.
