Start iTunes Minimized

Hi. I want iTunes to be available for AppleTV so I've set it to open upon log in but I'd rather it do so minimized (as it shifts desktops on me as it starts up - typically when I'm focused on something else). I found this thread but it is based on Windows. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2039042?answerId=9621589022#9621589022

Anything I can do on the Mac front? Thanks.
