I think the key question is whether the iTunes category is required to be a
value from a controlled taxonomy (often necessary for commerce reasons), or
whether it can be any user authored category.
If it is a controlled taxonomy, then the taxonomy should be defined in the
specification, including rules about case-sensitivity of the values etc., or
should normatively reference a list at the necessary commerce site for the
controlled vocabulary.
If it is a user authored category, perhaps consider simply using "tags",
which have been shown to be a very successful way of publishing and indexing
user authored "categories" / keywords etc.
