how do I transfer songs from one computer to the next?

To be specific, I'm talking about songs that I bought on iTunes. I know there's a way for that.

Update: OK I got all the songs I purchased...now for the songs I downloaded/uploaded via CD...

Do I need to buy a large flash drive or something?

Update 2: Success. If anybody needs to do the same, just use this:

Copy them to a pen drive, and copy them to the computer you want. Like any other file.

It doesn't matter mac or pc, like it's just copying files over to another computer.

nah, cause if its on a mac, you can copy your whole itunes library, including playlists, playcounts, etc..

HOL' UP ....I got a mac..how do I do this?

Just click on your home folder > Click on Music > Then copy that whole itunes folder to your new home folder on your mac.

You can do this on a windows computer too. File transferring isn't different between systems.

How do I do that though?

If you have an ethernet cable, connect the two computers together using that, and then follow the instructions on the apple website.
