importing iTunes library?
Hiya!
Here's the short version: Got a new laptop. Downloading + installing iTunes and realising that my ipod is about to be erased because iTunes doesn't recognise my (old) ipod. Here's the little catch: Most songs and videos I put on the ipod ae not on my hdd any more. So right now I cannot add any new songs/videos/pictures etc.
Quick browsing on the net revealed some programmes that are able to import the library from the ipod to iTunes, but they all want $$$ (Euros, quid, pesos). 
Can anybody recommend a good (and possibly free) programme?
Many thanks,

Is there not an option to "Authorize" your computer under the <Store> menu?
I believe you can have upto seven PC's authorized, but are still able to "Deauthorize" any old PC's.
It should then synchronize your iPod to the new iTunes installation.
Not 100% sure though.
