Transfering my tunes to a new computer

[agrivosti]

Hi, I am using windows with itunes and have about 200 albums currently in itunes and the same mirrored on my ipod. I am about to buy myself a new computer making my old one redundant! How do I copy the music that is on my old computer to the new one ? I have a 20g external hard drive so is it just a case of copying the albums in my doc/ music /itunes to the same folder on the new computer ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks Ant

If your music on your ipod is the same as on your computer, you should download a program like ipodutil to your new pc. This allows you to copy the songs from your ipod onto your harddrive, automaticaly adding them to itunes.
