Don't have a 360, but with my original Xbox I put a mod chip in it. Once you put a mod chip in an original Xbox you basically have a low-end PC, same hardware, network access, USB ports, etc.

Yes, I could have run pirated games, and it was very tempting to have the best newest game at the click of a mouse, but I never did. I did it to turn my Xbox into a media center, since I only played offline games anyway and didn't subscribe to Xbox Live. I also copied all the games I bought onto the hard drive so they would load faster.

When it comes down to it, you agree to the TOS when you sign up for Xbox Live, and if you don't follow them you get banned. Simple as that. I don't feel sorry for the people one bit.
