Copying From iPod back to iTunes

Hi,

Have a feeling this is not possible, but wanted to run it by folks here, see if anyone had any thoughts. Girlfriend kindly erased a load of my tunes from iTunes, and I want them back! Thankfully, no downloads, all from CD - so all can be replaced manually. However - they're all still on the iPod, so was wondering if anyone knew of a way to down/up-load music FROM iPod back onto iTunes.

Thoughts anyone?

I.

    There are dozens of ways. The simplest way is to just make hidden files visible and drag them back (Disk mode has to be enabled and you'll have to make sure Itunes doesn't autosync).

    The downside to dragging them back is that you loose all your filenames as Ipod renames everything

    If you Google you'll find lots of programs to do this. Many of them free:
