If you're using windows XP then create a seperate account for her and when she goes into iTunes from her account she can look through your library (it will come up as shared library) and take the songs out of your library that she wants.

Not 100% on this but i'm pretty sure that's what to do!

It's simpler than that, I've been doing it for ages! When you plug in the ipod for the first time you just need to set it to manual rather than automatic (unless you want the exact same music). Itunes can easily handle more than one with no problem at all. You have access to the same library.

By setting it to manual you can also use more than one computer for one ipod without it wiping the memory when you plug it in.
