just got a new laptop today and want to see what is the easiest way to transfer my entire itunes library from my old laptop to my new one. I know i can burn a sh1t load of cd-r's, but is there an easier way?

USB drive or network the laptops (real easy) and transfer everything you want.

Flash Drive

Transfer the music folders to the flash drive using explorer, then transfer them to the new laptop, then install iTunes. This way iTunes will do a search and find all your music. Trying to keep it simple here.

Exactly...just make sure you leave the music on the old computer till you know that you imported it into the new computer... and you can always back up your music with cd's, it doesn't hurt

Just copy the itunes music folder to a usb drive, or dvd if your not networked. If your networked get them both online and just drag and drop the file over.

When I got my new computer, the tech had me just use my iPod as a hard drive and it was the transfer device.
You don't need any flash drives or anything else.
