I was wondering how I would be able to get my iTunes off of my computer and on stashed or transferred to another computer, mine is out the door. CD's?

The current version of iTunes has a backup function that burns to DVD.

I just use an external hard drive. I have everything on my Time Capsule now, so I can put it on any computer I want to, its pretty cool.

Yeah, I'd say just use an external hard drive.
Wouldn't just dragging everything from your music folder onto that work?

External Drive. Just move the whole IPOD directory.

go to download.com and search for itunes transfer programs. My desktop crashed on me before and downloaded one of there programs all I needed was my Ipod and the program worked great.

Will a thumb drive work? I've got under 1,000 songs.
