Easiest way to clone iTunes?

I'm planning on wiping my iMac and putting a fresh copy of Mountain Lion on it. I want to keep my iTunes library completely intact (the playlists, the meta tags, my genre list, everything). What's the easiest way to clone my iTunes and have it be the same after the wipe?


I don't want to use Time Machine.


Thank you for your help!
