Can I use iTunes Match to transfer music from a laptop to a new mac? What's the best way to do this?

I have a lap top and have just ordered a new air book but am looking at he best potions for transferring over my music library? Any thoughts on the best way? Is iTunes Match an option?

Thanks!

MacBook Air

From your OLD computer...


Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..

An Added Bonus is that you will have a Backup of iTunes.


Also... have a look at these 2 Videos...
