Transfer Purchases from Your iPod

Hey, was this Transfer Purchases from NameOfYouriPod feature always here? It in in the iTune File menu. I just noticed it tonight. I had bought a bunch of stuff on the Mac mini that was my daily use Mac until it died. I finally saved up enough nickels and dimes to replace it recently. I attached my iPod video, clicked on the option and a bunch of purchased items appear to be flowing from my iPod to my new Mac. I guess I'll find out in a little while if things flowed over.

Next project? Need to buy a 1.5 inch putty knife to open up the dead Mac mini and see if I can fix it.
