    Hey there Matt.dvs1,

     

    Although there is not a way to remove past purchases from your iTunes account completely, you can hide them so that you don't have to see them if you don't want to. This article will help you do that:

     

    iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support

    Hide your purchases

     

    1. Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
    2. From the Store menu, choose Store > Sign In, and then enter your Apple ID and password.
    3. Go to the iTunes Store.
    4. Click Purchased from the Quick Links section on the right side of the iTunes Store.
      Purchased page quick link
    5. Choose a content type by clicking Music, Movies, TV Shows, Apps, or Books from the top of the window.
    6. A list of your purchased items for the content type you are viewing will appear. Mouse over the item you want to hide until an X appears its top-left corner.
      Hide an App
    7. A confirmation dialog will appear once you click the X.
      Manage Hidden Purchases

     

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

    All the best,

    Sterling
