senuti (itunes backwards) will transfer all your songs from you ipod back to your computer.  you have to pay, but it's totally worth it.  i've crashed two hard drives, and recovering all my music has taken a combined 45 mins.

You should be able to just redownload anything you purchased from iTunes by logging into iTunes. Everything else is gone forever, unless you can salvage the hard drive from your old laptop.

Is there anyway to backup your itunes so that you won't lose your Organized library if your Hard Drive crashes?? Besides paying 25 bucks for the iMatch or w/e.
