Sort purchased tracks into discrete playlists by name or account ID

This script will examine each track in the entire iTunes library--or a selection of tracks--for items purchased from the iTunes Store (audio, video, and books) and then sort them by either the purchaser's name or account ID into discrete playlists, eg: "Tom Ryan Purchases" or "tomryan@email.com Purchases".

Purchaser information is gleaned by examining the track's file, which, depending on file location and access speed, can take as long a second per track. Just sayin'.
