how many different apple ID's can you authorize on a single copy of iTunes? My husband and I each have our own apple IDs but the old "what's yours is mine and what's mine is yours" thing applies, and if he buys a CD or an app I want to use, then dammit, I want a copy! LOL

So how can I get his stuff on my computer and mine on his?
 
Apps wise I think you're stuck. I'm pretty sure app purchases can be shared but both phones need to be synced to the same computer/library and account for them to load on both phones. Somebody can correct me though.

As for music. Try using a flash drive to copy the files between computers. When you try to play them in the other itunes library it should ask for you to type in that person's itunes password. That will authorize your computer. You can do that for up to 5 computers. It will only matter for music you bought in itunes.
