You pay $300 for the system you should expect it to do some extra stuff not just games... maby it wont read cdr and cdrw as a preventative measure from pirated games in the future?? just a thought

Burn music onto a CD-RW (not a CD-R) disc, and close the session when you burn the CD. Place it in your X-Box and rip it. Note: This also works with .MP3 files. The Xbox can store .MP3s and replay them later and saves a lot of space when compared to the .WAV files that are standard on audio discs. i still need to test this, to see if it works | | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 138 Likes: 1 UGN Member | | UGN Member Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 138 Likes: 1 | I guess i know what im gonna be testing now...
