Yes, you'll have to make a choice, replace the library on your ipod with what's on the computer or keep that library and just buy a new ipod for your new stuff. It sucks. Same thing happened to me, and I lost a lot of music. You should back up your library. I know, it takes a lot of time and money for cds but its worth it. You could also purchase an external hard drive and back up to that. I use a service called carbonite.com. Its a back up service. It backs up the entire contents of your hard drive using encryptions and guarantees your privacy or they will compensate you. It is $55 a year and after the initial back up (which takes a couple of days) it just backs up every time you're on line. Now I never have to worry about loosing my music (or family videos and pictures) again.

Unfortunately, when your computer crashes iTunes loses everything too, other than what is in your iPod. It sucks, I had to learn the hard way too. :/ And the sucky part about me, I didn't even have my songs in my iPod, so everything was gone.
