how do i retrieve songs I downloaded into iTunes that were NOT purchased from apple?

I just a new iPhone and the only songs that got downloaded from iTunes were jus the songs I purchased from apple. How do I retrieve other songs I have in my iTunes library, such as songs I downloaded from cds years ago? Thanks

Jordan,

When you ripped the CD, a copy of the audio file was placed on the drive of the computer you used for the rip, and on any backups that you made subsequently. That is where you can get a copy.
