AT&T does sell one Android phone, but it's functionality is crippled compared to other Android devices on other networks.
iTunes is great if you don't already have your music stored in any way and want to use it to organize it. If you've already set up media storage, iTunes still wants to make you do everything its way. Also, iTunes doesn't recognize FLAC file formats, which are becoming more and more common.
As for the Windows services iTunes and QuickTime install, they are, for the most part, loaded unnecessarily. If they are required for operation of the program, they load at the time the software is launched. Instead, Apple has them load when the computer is started, which wastes resources. And yes, some people have had issues with them over the course of iTunes' and QuickTime's history. I know that the Mac implementations of these products is quite good, but the Windows counterparts aren't coded quite as well.
