Not wholly true:

You can sign up for a 60-day free trial of .Mac which will generate  
an AppleID without a credit card. Similarly, if you go to  
jobs.apple.com, you can register an AppleID without a credit card.

I do not know if iTunes will let you use an AppleID absent a payment  
method of some form: but I do know that you can use it with a  
giftcard rather than a CC.
