You make very good points.  I would add that in many cases, it is
backward compatibility that is the problem and that later version are
likely to work, though not guaranteed.  I was wondering in this case
if the problem is that the script hard codes a test for version 7 and
not 'greater than 6'.  However, since I don't use iTunes (horrors), I
have no way to check if changing the test to allow execution for later
versions would help.
