If you have music backups of the old iPod in iTunes, you can easily sync the songs with the new iPod.
If you don't have backups, you are also able to transfer purchased songs from the old iPod to iTunes using the "Transfer Purchases" function of iTunes. You won't be allowed to transfer the songs from the old iPod to computer or new iPod if the songs are not from iTunes.
This is how to transfer music from old iPod to new iPod with the "Transfer Purchases" function of iTunes:
Step 1. Plug the Old iPod into computer via the USB cable. Then launch iTunes.
Step 2. Click "File > Device > Transfer Purchases". iTunes will automatically transfer the songs to iTunes library.
Step 3. Plug the new iPod into computer. Then import the songs from iTunes to the new iPod.

Why when I try to sync music from itunes to my iPod from a new computer does it tell me all my music on my iPod will be erased?
because your ipod isn't authorized to the new computer. what i recommend doing is move all music to one computer with a flash drive and then when you delete the songs off of your ipod on the new computer, you will sink the same songs onto it. if that doesn't work, just move your songs onto the old computer. derpinfloogle
