Is that right??
Sorry, both Media Center and WMP offer streaming only. The only way to copy songs onto the hard disk is to rip them from an audio CD.

I have an iMac G5 (all-in-one) which has lots of inlet ports at the back, one of which I'm pretty sure could be used for connecting such devices, but really have no idea how to do so, or if it's possible.

Some clarity would be greatly appreaciated and would save me buying a new telly!
It is possible, but I'm not a Mac user, so I can only give you very generic information.
On a PC, you need a video capture card to plug the 360 into. These usually come in the form of TV tuners, but can also be stand-alone. You then load up the bundled software to view and record whatever it is you've plugged into the capture card.

Need help!
Can you give more information? Like which anti-virus and firewall software you're running?
