 Confirmed that the script is running as root (uid 0).

-------------------------- Play Button iTunes Patch --------------------------
 This program will patch the Remote Control Daemon to prevent it from starting
 iTunes whenever you press the play button on the keyboard or an external
 remote control. This will only prevent iTunes from starting, all other
 functions (like play/pause while iTunes is _running_) will continue to work
 as before.

 Also, this program will backup the original file in case if you would like
 to restore the original functionality.

 This program comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; please see the included
 license file for details.


Everything is ready. Would you like to create a backup and apply the patch? (y/N) y

Finished patching.  To verify:
 1. If iTunes is already running then quit it first.
 2. Press the play button on your keyboard.
 3. If iTunes did not start then the patch was applied successfully.
 4. Enjoy.

Run this script again if you would like to restore the original functionality.
