    Can I rip CD's on to my 360 or use an external hard drive to transfer MP3's/WMA's to my 360?

    not sure about xbox but with an xbox 360 you can plug your music device in the back with a usb cord. Not sure if it is iPod only because that is the only thing i have tried it with but I don't see why it wouldn't work with any other mp3

    I am almost positive that a 360 can rip Audio CD's, so yes.

    I personally prefer to just play my mp3 player through a 360.

    You can also play mp3s through an external hard drive plugged into it, which is usually a better bet than playing actual mp3s off of the 360.

    Ive tried transferring mp3s from my phones memory card to the 360, and no go.:meh:

    It will definitely rip cds, however.

    I've been playing my music from an External hard drive into the 360 but it's annoying. LOL Why have a hard drive on when I have a 360 hard drive. Oh well... I'm not at home so I won't be able to try until later tonight.

    It can be done, but I prefer to stream mine from my mainbox. Frees up 360 HDD space for Rock Band tracks, you see. ;)

    I don't have a 360, but my PS3 rips CDs onto the HDD, so I don't see why you can't do the same thing on 360, especially since you can have custom soundtracks for your games.
