well it depends on what kind of iPod/computer you have and are trying to use, usually you simply can't just using the Ipod, but if you still have the old computer with all the music on it then just either scan about 100 songs per DvD, well they can handle alot more so if you have a program that will let you do more go for it, otherwise just use a USBdrive remember it dosent have to be all at once. if you happen to not have any of these(CDs, DvDs, Flash drive/USB)
Then there is A program around called sentui and it is A program that lets you transfer your "ipod" to "computer" http://www.transfer-ipod-to-iTunes.com/ipod-to-itunes-transfer
But if you don't have the old computer laying around, it really isn't that hard to download all your music again because you have your Ipod right there with you as A guide. there are some other good places to get your music besides Itunes, which can cost anywhere fromm $8,000 to $80,000 to fill your Ipod up.

Easy have a computer with itunes, if you dont have thapple program, download it at apple.com/itunes then connect your ipod to the computer and add cds to your library or buy music from the store* *you need an account to purchase music.

From your old computer, go to the 'File' menu on iTunes, go to 'Library', then 'Back up library'. Copy the backup, open with iTunes on the new computer, and it should be there.
Answerit will be a gotcha lurks when you install iTunes and plug your iPod onto a new computer because iTunes is set by default to replace your iPod library with the desktop library the first time they are partnered.of course since your iTunes library is empty it will promptly wipes out your precious music on the iPod leaving you with no library anywhere. so to get music off ipod to a new itunes or computer, you have get some help from 3-party programs. most of them work great and feature sync your ipod/iphone with a new empty itunes library without erasing any thing. them even let you transfer any files between different ipods and iphone.about: ipod to new itunes/computer (http://www.ipodtocomputertransfers.com/how-to-copy-itouch-songs-to-new-computer.html)
Why does iTunes lose your music library?If you have put any new music on your iPod lately, your computer could have synced your iPod and deleted all of the music.
In order to add music to your iPod you must download and install iTunes onto your new computer.
How do you download your current library onto a new computer? If that's what you meant, then you would have to: 1) Add all your songs on your current library to a disc or USB stick and upload them onto your new computer. or 2) Re-download the songs with your new computer.
Yes. All the songs form your library will be transferred to the iPod, and the library will not be harmed.
I don't think you can. You can synch your iPod manually with your new computer tho and select all the tracks on your iTunes that you want to download and then it will add them to your iPod without deleting the tracks on your iPod first. Your other option is to copy all your tracks from your old computer to your new computer then automatically synch your iPod, then it wouldn't matter if i wipes it. I have manually synched my iPod on different macs and it works fine.
