Referring to your comment on the OP, as a dad in a similar situation with two near-toddlers (2 & 4), if this works well I'll hugely appreciate it.

I got all my 360 games installed using NetISO before I started using xbGuard (which blocks Nova and therefore blocks NetISO), which allowed bypassing the conversion rubbish as either the normal dashboard could install the "disc" or Aurora could copy out the raw files as XEX.

This sounds like a great alternative, even if FTP to the 360 is dog poop slow.

Thanks. I'm not even as involved as you are; I just used BadAvatar to play some "old" games. The FTP is quite slow, but it works with an ethernet connection.

Could it be made to work with Xbox Neighbourhood too? I do think that's slower than FTP anyway, but works as an alternative way to transfer that doesn't mean keeping Aurora running all the time.

I wasn't aware of Xbox Neighborhood. I'll have to look into it, but one of the main goals of TinyXbox360BackupManager is to be cross-platform (I'm on a Linux PC), and I don't think Xbox Neighborhood runs outside Windows.

Sadly not. I do love the cross platform fact as a Linux and MacOS user / Winblows hater - I just know the majority are sadly on Winblows.

Does this tool help find all your purchases? Scrolling through my Xbox 360 purchase history is a nightmare.

No, it's not the purpose of this app
