I have a txt file of products that I would like to be able to insert a

In a nutshell, the script is taking a single filename as an argument,
opening the file and then checking line n for equality with n-1.
Hence it does not comply with the OP's requirement, i.e. a blank line
whenever the *product name* changes.
As a more general rule, I would have to recommend *not* running scripts you
don't understand that you find floating around on the interwebs.
Indeed.
