This screenshot doesn't look faked, so yes, I believe it's a fact. A whois on 207.net reveals:
Organization:
Omniture Inc.
Omniture DNSAdmin
550 E. Timpanogos Circle
Orem, UT 84097
US
Phone: 801-722-7000
Fax..: 801-722-7001
Email:
dnsadmin@omniture.com
And from what I can tell, Omniture is not a subsidiary of Apple, so yes, it's a 3rd party.

... and ONLY IF the Mini-Store is visible, ONLY when a track is clicked, NOT for every song played.

iTunes launches with the Mini-Store open, and either way, this does not address the issue of privacy transparency.
