You say sneaky, but how many games support windows XP these days?

It is entirely unreasonable to expect any company to continue long term support for a platform past a certain date and Leopard was released in 2007. The development costs for legacy development become intangible at a certain point.

Since when is iTunes anything like a game? Does iTunes not support XP anymore? Nope, it does.

Apple is just trying to bully people into paying even more money for something likely uneeded, just as Microsoft were when forcing people to upgrade to Vista to play Halo [which ever version it was].
