Hi. I want to upload some music, movies to my Xbox? What's the easiest way (I don't know, USB cable, Jump drive) I don't want to go online.
My friend bought some games from Microsoft Online store. How to transport that game on my Xbox?
What chances are to get banned from online service if I have flashed Xbox?
What banning is? I can't play online anymore? I can't buy enything from Live?
Well prepared to be disappointed just like I was when I first found out this info:
1. You can't upload movies to your 360's hdd. If you want movies, you're gonna have to dl them from XBL marketplace.
2. The only way to get music onto it is to put an actual cd in there and let it rip. So if you have a huge mp3 collection, you'd have to burn a ton of audio cds and then let the 360 rip it to its hdd. LAME.
The good news is that you can put all your shit (movies, pictures, music) on an external hdd or memory device and connect it to the 360 via usb. That works great. Personally I have my 360 networked to my PC so I just stream my stuff from my PC. That works great too as long as you have a decent connection.
Another option is to burn your media and shit to a dvd and pop it in there.
No one knows the exact chances of you being banned from XBL if you flash your 360. Although playing fucked up backup increases your chances of being caught dramatically. So use proper backups and check to make sure they are properly stealthed.
When you get banned, your 360 won't be able to connect to XBL at all. So, no more playing online and no more downloading shit, period. Thats a harsh punishment if you play online alot but if you don't use XBL anyway, it wouldn't matter too much.
Also, the games your friend downloaded will only work on HIS 360. You can't transport an arcade game from his system to yours.
