iPod touch "Transfer Purchases" is just deleting songs.

[Chundles]

This one's a pickle, in the last week every song I have purchased on my iPod touch has vanished. I clicked "Transfer Purchases from iPod touch" and a progress bar whipped across much faster than usual and the songs were gone. Not on my iPod nor my iTunes library or anywhere on my machine. A spotlight search returned nothing.

Anyone else had the same problem?

No, no backups - they wouldn't work anyway as the music was purchased on my touch not the computer. It's only two songs but now I'm loathe to buy anything wirelessly until the next update.
