Expanding on what The Fiend said, the license to play music from a CD is tied to and stays with the CD. So if you sell or give away the CDs, the license to play the music goes with them, at which point you legally no longer have the right to the tracks. You need to keep the CDs if you want to keep the music.
As for transferring the tracks from your iPhone back to your computer so you don't have to re-import all your CDs, check out this post from Zevoneer for some iPod/iPhone media recovery options:

I updated to the newest version of itunes, now I cannot open the program. I get the message "The file iTunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes". What now?

I updated to the newest version of iTunes and now I can not open the program. I get the message "The file iTunes library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes". What now? I'm using Windows Vista.

Had same problem and solved it without having to reinstore any music or movies:
1. Delete old Library file
2. Go to the 'Previous iTunes Libraries' folder and copy one of the earlier files - note, they have a date extension, e.g. 'iTunes Library 2011-11-01'.
3. Paste this file in your iTuners folder and rename file by removing the date extension - 'iTunes Library'
You should have all your music and paylists in tact, unless it was a really old previous file.

We downloaded you newest version and cannot print to our 2 printers and toolbars and securithy icons have gone missing.

My daughter and I downloaded your latest download to update to your newest version of Firefox and it deleted certain toolbars and a security icon I had for banking. We both cannot print to our printers ever since we did the download. Help please!

The security lock is gone with the Statusbar being removed from Firefox 4.0. The Site Identity Button provides better security information than the "lock" did. <br />

Can't download the music I have already purchased

I purchased an album last night from the iTunes store, it charged me for it, and then gave me and "error (-50)". If i go to downloads I see all the music sitting there, but it won't let me download any of it because of the error. Its not just that album, i tried to download another song, it also didnt work, waited overnight thinking it was just iTunes, but nobody else seems to be having this problem. If i can't get my music then i want the 10 dollars they charged me for it back, any ideas? thanks
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.7) iPod Video 5th Gen (30Gb), iPod w/Color Display

Yeah I know, i just found that and read it, but I wasn't downloading any video. I went ahead and tried to follow their steps on there for the video error -50, but it told me to go to "itunes music" then the "downlaods" folder, which I don't have =/ So I'm not sure, I just now emailed support about it.

I downloaded the newest version of itunes now i have no sound on my computer

I tried doing a system restore prior to the update as well as uninstalling and restalling the software but i still have no sound anywhere on my computer

Go to your applications folder and start iTunes from there. If that works you need to drag the application to the Dock.

HT204074 My roomate and I have separate apple id's both have purchased music on iTunes and have authorized eachother on our computers. What happens if he makes his computer one of my iTunes Match devices? Will he still be able to use his music and mine

My roomate and I have separate apple id's and we both purchase music from iTunes Store on our own id's. we authorized eachother as users on our computers. I recently purchased iTunes Match. If he sets his MacBook and iPhone 4 as one of my devices (1of10) on iTunes Match will he be able to see his purchases and mine on his computer? Will I be as to see his? Can he still use his apple I'd? I'm new to this....
FYI I have iPhone 5 and windows vista my roomate has iPhone 4 and a macbook

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately, if Apple simply allowed people to log into different accounts and download content, everyone would be using everyone could share everyone else's content and bypass the need to purchase anything. To protect against this, they limit you to logging into a new account to once every 90 days.
If two or more of you, have different accounts and use only one computer, you should each have your own user account on the computer, to avoid the need to log in and out of iTunes.

Since I have the newest version of itunes, I can't back up like normally. The only way is to considilate files and then put them on an external drive which I don't have. Are there any other options? If I can't back up to a disc like I used to, can I instead just keep everything on my ipod and then if I have to get a new computer or something just download all my songs from the ipod to my new computer's itunes? Will that work? Will I still be able to keep all my songs that way?

I'm going to assume the consolidating files does not work due to hard drive space limitations.
Since you're moving to Windows 7, have you tried using the Windows files and settings transfer utility? That will move everything for you to the same location on the new computer, it also allows some control over what actually gets moved.
Alternatively, if you know the location of all of the media, it can be manually moved by copying it from the old computer to the new computer in the same location.
Also, using the Apple article on moving the library, take a slight twist on what it says. Move the iTunes library to the external drive, update the settings in iTunes to reflect the library being on the external drive, then consolodate it.
The options are endless for moving the library... it simply takes a little effort to make it happen and possibly a twist on existing "standard" methods depending on your unique situation.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

My iPhone 4S will not sync to iTunes. I've download the newest version of iTunes several times but when plugging my phone in it says "The iPhone cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.6.3 or later."

My iPhone 4S will not sync to iTunes. I've download the newest version of iTunes several times but when plugging my phone in it says "The iPhone cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 10.6.3 or later." HELP!

If you're using Windows try uninstalling iTunes and all of its components as by following this guide exactly: Windows XP or Windows Vista/7, then reinstall the latest version of iTunes. You must follow this guide exactly or it will not be successful. Note: uninstalling iTunes will only remove the application; it will not touch your iTunes library or data.

HT4527 I transfered my Itunes information using a thumb drive to my new computer and downloaded the newest version of itunes to my new laptop. My songs are all there on the new computer but it won't recognize my ipod and sync.

I transfered my I tunes library to my new laptop using a thumb drive. I downloaded the newest version of Itunes to my new computer. My old ITUNES library of songs and books came across just fine. I can play them on the new laptop but they won't sync with my Ipod. The Itunes shows no devices when I hook it up to the laptop. Windows recognizes that the IPOD is hooked up. But no connection with ITUNES. Did I make a mistake in trying to sync my Itunes purchases to the new laptop before transfering the old library into the new ITUNES. If so how do I undo the problem. Please help. I use a PC with Windows XP.

When I downloaded the newest version of iTunes, my previously downloaded music in iTunes library disappeared on my computer? There was no warning of this happening. What do I do?

Ok, so I downloaded the newest version of iTunes on my home PC, and the previously downloaded music in my iTunes library disappeared on my computer. What happened? I can sync my iPod but I am not sure how long ago I synced it so I may be missing some music downloads. Why did this happen, and more importantly, why didn't iTunes warn me it could happen and advise me to sync with another device before the download? I am not very happy about this and it's a huge issue for iTunes if this is happening. It makes me very wary of iTunes.

Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps then you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!
