Is it "legal" to authorize my apple account with a person I am not related to, therefore they would get all of the songs in my library and still be able to purchase on their own account?
Answers:
Authorizing a computer means that music that you have purchased from the iTunes Store can be played on that computer. That%26#39;s all it means. You can authorize your music to play on up to 5 computers, and it doesn%26#39;t matter whether they%26#39;re your computers or someone else%26#39;s.
The only way the other person would "get all of the songs" in your library would be if they copied the whole library over to their computer.
The other person can purchase music on their own account, and they can have their music and yours on their computer. They%26#39;d be using one of their 5 authorizations, and one of your 5 authorizations to have both people%26#39;s purchased music in their library.
A friend let me buy some songs on her account, and it was a hassle later because the songs were tied to her account. In the end I burned them to CD, deleted the original songs, and reimported from CD to get them back into the library without having to tie up one of her authorizations (she needed them all).
BTW, if you ever want/need to deauthorize a particular computer, Apple doesn%26#39;t let you pick and choose. When you deauthorize, it deauthorizes them all, and then you begin again authorizing the ones you want.
