ITunes -- any way to make it scriptable?

I could have sworn somewhere I heard that ITunes was scriptable -- is
that in X only? or later versions than what came with 9.1?

I just started using it, and it's pretty cool, but either the features
or the manual leave a lot to be desired. I can't figure out any way to
mass enter the same thing for a bunch of different tracks (such as the
artist or Genre field). By naming the disk before import, I can get it
to at least put that in the album field for every track, but that's it.

I was hoping that I could write a little script hack that would do mass
entry like this among selected tracks, so I looked at the dictionary.
It *does* have an aete resource, but it appears to contain *no* classes
or commands, not even from the Required Suite. I wouldn't be suprised
if the basics of the required suite were supported anyway -- I didn't
test it.

But clearly that doesn't help. Anyone here know whether an update will
help?
