Apple releases their updates via iTunes right? Don't you HAVE to use it for that.

The 2.0.1 update was like this... actually every Android update I've ever seen came the same exact way (including the 3 or 4 I got on my G1 over the past year). There is nothing really secret in the zip they are trying to hide. People are only getting it quicker.. they aren't hacking into a remote server and stealing secured code or something. It's really not a big deal.
