getting xbl content from one xbox to another

[turn2dmk]

is it possible via system link cable to transfer xbl content(such as the new sc levels coming out) to another xbox? would a memory card do the trick as well? i hope a system link cable can, (assuming the stuff isnt on an oxm disc) this way i wont have to buy a memory card.

also, what type of cable is needed for the system link?

thanks

I think a memory card only holds 8 MB, as far as I know that the XBL content you d/l is part of the main XBL file which is way bigger than 8MB - this stuff isn't saved as individual files. Microsoft is smart, they want people to actually buy XBL instead of leeching it off their friends.

Nope. The files just aren't accessible.

Here's what to do. Take your Xbox over to a friend's house that has XBL. Put your machine in place of his. Use his Live disk to install Live on your box. He can then have his account on a memory card, and can use it to log into Live for you, and do all the downloads you want. Then take your machine home, and plug his back in.
