Here is a quick tutorial to help you managed that daunting task with a simple freeware application, <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/digitalphotography/prophoto/synctoy.mspx">Sync Toy</a>. First download this tool from the Microsoft website. Run the setup. After installing Sync Toy, run it for the first time. In the bottom right it will give you the option of creating a new folder pair. Select that and it comes up with a dialog. Select the left side to be where the folder is on either the other remote computer or this computer (whichever has all of the songs). Then click next and on the next screen, choose echo. (there are many choices to choose, pick the one best suited for your needs. If you frequently are adding songs on both computers, then choose synchronize, it will just take longer). Then run the sync that you just prepared, and watch as songs are copied over. Then, use <a href="http://albumbrowser.klarita.net/iTunesFolderWatch.html">iTunes Folder Watch</a> to automatically watch and add the new songs to iTunes. This method is Windows only, if you would like me to try to find a Mac solution, post in the comments. If you discover a shortcut or something that is not explained well, also, please post in the comments.
