Are Apple's servers the fastest?
Whenever I run Software Update and download something (or from iTunes), files pretty much download twice as fast as anything else I download. I'm on cable and I get around 1.5 MBs/second for Apple downloads, and I usually get around 500kbs-900kbs for everything else. Has anyone else noticed something similar?

Yes - Apple downloads tend to be some of the fastest for me too.
Apple uses Akamai (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akamai_Technologies).
