Sure... got a DVD burner? That'll make it easier than if you have only a
CD burner.

If you're using Windows XP... click Start -> Search -> For Files Or
Folders -> All Files and Folders.

In the "All or part of the filename:" box, type ".m4a" (without the
quotes). Make the search "look in" all of your local hard drives.

Now while the search is in progress, open your burning software and
create a new "data" compilation.

When the search is complete, just drag the files from the "results"
window into the burning software's window. Now go ahead and burn.

Then you can take the DVD, put it in the other computer's drive, and
copy&paste the files to its hard drive.
