I know that this post is old, but, if you use this method, you can move or copy playlists from any PC in just a few clicks.
If your using the playlist to save your library songs etc,
Before you do anything though make a copy of the playlist
1. Download a program called Notepad ++
2. Install right mouse click on the saved Playlist and select to open with Notepad ++
3. the file will open, it will look a lot like Notepad..
Take not of the path of your files. usually will look like
C:\Music\Artist Name - Song Title
Your other PC has the path:
D:\Music\Artist Name - Song Title
Here is a sample

#EXTINF:263,Trapt - Contagious

#EXTINF:0,Cheap Trick - Hello There
H:\Broadcast Music\Rock\Cheap Trick - Hello There.mp3
You will notice the path is H:\Broadcast Music\Rock\Artist Name - Song title
But I have another PC with the path that uses Drive G:
Go to the Search Tab on Notepad++ and click Replace
In Find What Box , Type in the current path that you want to change. Usually it is just a drive letter.
So I want to type in the Drive H:\Broadcast Music or H:\
Make sure you type the drive letter with the : and \ together.
This will ensure you don't change any other part of the file.
Next
In Replace with type in the path of the computer that you want use...
I'm going to change it to G:\Music or G:\
Select Replace All

If you just need to change the drive letter, type in Drive Letter with :\
with Find and the replace Letter.
Find H:\ Replace G:\
Save the file,
Open the file in the computer you switched lhard drive letters
I showed both how to change a path and drive letter. but most people will only need to change the drive letter, you could go into computer management and change the drive letter of the drive, but I advise not to take that approach, since it may interfere with other programs.
This method only take a few mouse clicks and you'll have a backup copy of your playlist. This works with all PCs, no matter what path the files are on, even network paths.
I gave a more detailed explanation on how to edit the files.
Enjoy.
