How do you get music off other computer itunes libraries without losing your own music?

I have music on my itunes ipod but I would like to get the music from my friends computer. Does anyone know how I can keep my music on my ipod and library and get my friends on as well.

You have to set your ipod to "manually manage my music" then you can just plug it in to the computer and drag the songs you want across onto your ipod without deleting anything.

iTunes won’t let you…why?
It is illegal to copy your friends mp3

Set your iPod to manually manage music, and then you can drag music to your iPod from your friend’s computer.
And when you go back to your own computer, to keep those songs, you can use an iPod transfer program to help you copy those songs from your iPod back to your computer and iTunes, like this handy one called Tansee iPod Transfer
http://www.gutensoft.com/Utilities/Tansee-iPod-Transfer.htm
Many of my friends are using it for its easy and safe transfer.

With just a few simple clicks, it will help you transfer all songs/videos from iPod to your selected folder on your computer, and then you can also easily add those files back to iTunes.
More importantly, this won’t overwrite any original files on your iPod. And all song names are preserved.

Here is the step-by-step guide on the whole process:
