Anyways, getting back to the topic at hand...

I tested this out with my Fiance's 6gb Creative MP3 player, it did work, but I was limited access to only 100 songs on it (and I know for sure there's a hell of a lot more than that).

I'm thinking the best option would probably be to just rip your audio cds to the hard drive and play them that way (unless ofcourse you want to have a usb device constantly hooked up to your 360).

I've used my iPod (4th Gen), Creative Zen Vision:M and also streamed from PC. I only have a few issues in that certain songs win't play from my ipod, Zen or streaming.

i was streaming on my windows xp home based pc , and i noticed that .wav wont work . It clearly shows a big O cirlcle in red with a / in red ... that music works fine cuz i usualy listen to it.

And nooooooo i can't burn it .... i don't mind this cuz i know it'll get hacked but when i put my CD music and they are id tagged and it doesnt put the names of each song .... Confused i didnt have it pluged to the cat6 cable can this be the reason?

i'll try it now and post replay .....

My SONY walkman works PERFECTLY on my MICROSOFT Xbox 360, still have the problem of it playing only the first 100 songs. It really cool listening to the techno version of the mexican hatdance while playing COD2 or GRAW , it amps you up Laughing
