iTunes is one of the most popular digital music stores and music managers. Your iTunes account is the key to your Apple identity: it quickly connects you to your iTunes and Ping profile, and allows you to re-download iPhone, iPod and iPad apps. You don't need to sign up for a new account with a new computer, just download iTunes and sign in. Any music and video you purchased from iTunes on another computer will not automatically appear on your new computer, however; you need to back it up and copy it to your new hard drive to listen to it.
