With XML as badly designed as the iTunes format appears to be, I would
say that JAXB isn't the tool of choice. I'd parse the XML using STAX
and manually populate a data structure.
You could proably convince JAXB to put that XML into a sensible
structure, but it's probably more trouble than it's worth.
