Pretty easy... it's all FTP, and as long as you make a backup you can't
go *that* far wrong ;->

I don't use my xbox enough at the moment - mainly due to time
constraints, but I do use it for occasional game playing, and for
watching simpsons/south park/ friends/ any other things I download -
it's so much more convenient than when I used to use either a PC or a
laptop, even when the PC had TV out.... with the xbox it's much
simpler.... I have a video share folder on one of my machines which is
where BitTorrent stuff gets saved to, then as soon as it hits 100% I can
play it :)

I've still not sorted out the Tivo playing on it.... it worked jerkily,
then the last version I got I couldn't view the list properly at all
etc... :S

Will probably grab the latest version of XBMC sometime soon.

Cheers
