AWUG makes updates available to its members on their CDs. Wouldn't Apple shut that down if there was something wrong with that? They certainly don't try to hide that fact, and they are very clearly recommended by Apple.

Well, if that's okay maybe we should all do things that are specifically prohibited by license and law because we haven't actually been sued for it.

Apple restricts it because the authenticity of updates is important in a world where even authorised software is back-doored by unscrupulous programmers.
