2 iTune users. What is the best way to setup?

2 iTune users. What is the best way to setup?

I have an iPod and currently use iTunes on Windows XP Home edition.

I just bought my wife an iPod for Mother's Day and need to set up her iTunes.

Should I just copy all cds to my library or is there a way to set up a "personal" iTunes for her?

I guess we can both use the same iTunes, but I figured that library will get HUGE.

Just looking for suggestions, any help would be appreciated.

Most people have it so that the library is just one big library that you both can draw from. It is easy and totally possible to have both iPods draw from the same library. If the iPods are larger than your collection then you can use the auto sync feature and load all the music on to both iPods. If you have more music than room you will need to use manual sync and just drag and drop the songs you want on to a given iPod.

What about music purchased from iTunes? Can it be downloaded to both ipods in the previous post?

Thanks!
