[X4U] Music Library - Son going off to college

So my son just graduated from high school and will be headed off to college
in the fall.  He just had his college visit where he got his computer (A
MacBook Pro).  He also used some of his graduation money to pick up a new
iPod.  One of the questions that I haven't had much time to think about is
what is the best way to handle our music/app/movie library.  Up until this
time everyone in the house has used the Home Sharing feature and everything
has been downloaded under one Apple ID.

If I remember authentication has to happen for items using that account,
and the more I look at this, it seems like it has the potential to be a
mess (because as he moves out of the house, I don't want him to have that
account info).  I'm assuming someone else has done this before.  Does
anyone have advice on this process?  Or the gotchas of sorting this out?

Thank,
-Michael Peterson
