I'm keep to find out if iTunes interfaces with a WebObjects Music Store or not? If so any ideas how?
That is does it use a WebObjects XML service?
Taht would be very easy to do, that's why i ask.

Yep most definitely.
It probably didn't take them long to fix up the WebObjects server side.
Populating the database must have been most of the work.
And of course the rest of the work is on the iTunes 4 client. Very nice

Have a look at the XML it's really cool.
Code:
<HBoxView topInset="13">
<TextView topInset="1" truncation="right" styleSet="normal11" leftInset="0" maxLines="1" textJust="left">
<b>$9.99</b>
</TextView>
<Buy buyParams="productType=P&salableAdamId=352412&price=9990" itemName="Away from the Sun">
<if cart="true">
<PictureButtonView width="90" topInset="0" picts="plain,pressed,rollover" url="/images/btn_addalbum_16.png" leftInset="5" height="16" />
<PictureButtonView width="90" topInset="0" picts="plain,pressed,rollover" url="/images/btn_buyalbum_16.png" leftInset="5" height="16" />
</if>
</Buy>
</HBoxView>
It is a little like HTML but it also has some logic in it <if></if>.
