The license says you can install it on any computer you own or control.

I've just upgraded 5 machines in my home office, and 3 of them have never run iTunes, never mind been an iTunes authorized computer.

EDIT: To be clear, I interpreted your comment to mean you have to have an iTunes authorized computer, which is a specific requirement for some audio books, etc., as I've seen others mention. If that wasn't your meaning, apologies... just trying to add clarification.

Correct, should have said needs authenticating with your Apple ID.
