Since authorization to play your DRM protected tracks are ultimately
flows from your Apple iTunes account, choosing to deauthorize all
computers is not a problem or risk (I've done it a bunch of times
myself).
Once all machines have been deauthorized, each machine that attempts
to play a DRM track for the first time will seek authorization with
Apple's servers. If your account is under the 5 machine limit,
authorization is granted. Fast and nearly transparent.
