Good luck. My guess is that open-source systems like Linux or *BSD
are considered too easily hackable, and therefore prohibited in
Apple's agreements with the recording industry. (Even if the iTunes
app itself were distributed as binary-only, having both the input
and output drivers open-source might be perceived as making it too
easy to attack the encryption.)
