By design, iTunes syncing is generally in one direction only, from iTunes library to iPod. You cannot use iTunes to transfer song files from iPod to computer (except for songs purchased from iTunes Store). However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer. If you do an Internet search on something like "ipod music transfer," you should get some useful links, including an article by CNET on the topic.
Once your iPod's song files are on your new computer's drive, add them to your new iTunes library. Going forward, you should regularly back up your complete iTunes library data on your computer (along with the rest of your user data).
NOTE: For media purchased from iTunes Store, you can download them again (on new computer) at no cost
