I am setting up a new computer and need to transfer all of my itunes music to the new computer. What's the best way to transfer the music downloaded from the itunes music store? Is authorizing the new computer the only way to play this music?

Yes. Don't forget to deauthorize the old one if you're decomissioning it.

Here are a number of ways to do it. Yes, you will have to authorize your new computer to play the purchased stuff.
