How to Move a CD File to a Memory Stick
The Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3 are more than just gaming consoles; they are also media devices, allowing you to rip tracks from musical compact discs and place them on the hard drive of the console. Like game saves and downloadable content, music disc tracks take up space on your hard drive, so you may want to move them onto a USB stick to free space.
