Move an iTunes library to a new machine
I've had to do this many times when formating a drive that has my home folder on it. I find the easiest way is just to copy the entire Music folder. When you have a fresh iTunes, simply open it up and quit it to create it's playlists/preferences and such. Then take the old Music Folder and replace the new one. Open iTunes again and everything will be there, playlists and all. This might be simpler than the posted hint.
