Assuming you haven't changed the default folder that songs go into:
You need to copy the 'iTunes Music' folder from My Documents\My Music on the old computer onto the same place on the new computer. You may overwrite some files if you've already installed and run iTunes on the new comp, go ahead and let it overwrite. The next time you run iTunes on the new comp, it finds the libarry that you just copied over and your artwork play count etc are all intact.
After that, you may need to authrise your new computer when you try to play a tune that you bought from the iTunes store, this is just a case of entering your username and password that you bought the tune with.

What he said but make sure that itunes is closed on both computers. Otherwise, you may have some trouble copying the library over.Space for rent, apply within - Free trial on Thanks button though0
