Back-up iTunes?

Is there a way to back-up your iTunes file (like on a floppy or something) if your computer loses all of its files and you want to get all of your songs back. I have 7,000+ songs and don't want to reload them again.

    You can do it i iTunes............."File>>Back Up To Disc". I would suggest using DVD's as they hold way more than CD's. Keep in mind when you're finished with the back up you can only use the discs to restore if your PC breaks down. You can't record it to others PC. It's a very easy process backing up in iTunes. Just pop in a disc, DVD recommended, and it starts recording. I have about 3000 songs and it took 3 DVD discs.

    Back it up

    You can use iTunes to archive your entire music and video library on CDs or DVD-Rs for safekeeping. Just choose “Back Up to Disc” from the File menu, tell iTunes what you want to back up, and insert a disc. iTunes does the thinking for you — just keep feeding it discs till you’re done
