Well, there is a problem. I don't know how this fix works, but quicktime.com still gives me ad for Quicktime instead of playing it after upgrading to 2.30.0-0ubuntu3. I can't see many reasons why Apple does it - they don't have and they don't plan to release Quicktime for Linux - but this is quite saddening and no Ubuntu or Gstreamer fault at all. Almost only reason I can think about that they have lot of "leecher" tools and different players connecting to site and trying playing trailers and overmaxing their resources, so they have to limit this access. Still, not very nice.
