A lot of experimentation went on with the iTunes icon in particular (and iTunes in general). It was the UI playground for new ideas before they would release in the next OS version. https://www.versionmuseum.com/history-of/itunes-app As you can see the icon changed multiple times even within the same year or same OS version.
