Looking for some tips on where to begin developing a specific application. I have never built any application so I guess I need to start with the basics - where should I start? Where can I find info about iTunes and controlling it via http?
Of course, the alternative is working closely with someone that already knows how to do this sort of stuff I'm open to discussing my idea with a developer for a potentialy huge application.

You can't actually control iTunes via http directly. What you'd have to do is have an invisible app running listening for connections, and control iTunes via applescript with that.
