    The CD drivers aren't written by Apple, but rather Gear Software. This is Apple's first real try at a Windows driver, and it sure shows.

    You probably already know this, but for the benefit of others -- those drivers are from GEAR software:

    I believe iTunes uses a service called "iPod Service" to interact with the iPod, not a driver.

    iTunes does, however, install GEAR CD/DVD ASPI drivers for controlling CD/DVD burners.

    iTunes is "GEAR powered"; i.e. it installs the GEAR CD/DVD burner ASPI drivers. See:

    Wouldn't those be kernel-space drivers?
