I am not sure they disclose this in their end user license agreement, but apparently ITunes is sending information back to Apple servers when you are using ITunes.
This raises privacy concerns. As per the article, it's sending back information on your habits, and then sending specific advertising back to your ITunes based on the info it has stolen and crunched.
While not the first application to do this, I thought it odd coming from Apple.
