KrK / Team 360h released a version of ISO2GOD, a PC app for converting Xbox 360 ISO images straight into Games on Demand containers.

What's new/fixed:
+ Support for conversion of Xbox1 ISO images.
Now that it's possible to execute Xbox XBEs using the Xbox1 emulator, it seemed like a good time to add in support for Xbox1 ISO conversion to Iso2God.
Xbox1 titles cannot be run from Games on Demand containers, but thanks to some hard work by rab, it turns out they run just fine when launched from an Xbox Originals container which use a different content type of 0x00005000. Keep in mind if the default.xbe for the Xbox1 ISO has been altered in any way, or is not on the official compatibility list, you'll need to use the modified Xbox1 emulator which was leaked recently. Not all titles will work 100% as they will only work if the emulator supports them.
Thanks go out to rab for his work in getting Xbox titles up and running from GOD containers and the large amounts of testing he ends up doing for I2G.
~ Changed starting sector of rebuilt ISOs to match SDK.
~ Fixed handling of Unicode characters in Title Names.
~ Fixed issue when custom thumbnails were loaded.
~ Fixed error when a queued conversion with no thumbnail was edited.
~ Lots of other boring tweaks and fixes.

Documentation obtained by Joystiq - and subsequently confirmed with two separate sources - reveals that "USB Mass Storage Device Support on Xbox 360" will soon be a reality. The document, authored by a senior software development engineer at Microsoft, states that due to "increased market penetration of high-capacity, high throughput USB mass storage devices, a 2010 Xbox 360 system update" will allow consumers to save and load game data from USB devices. The update is purportedly coming in Spring 2010.

Once the update occurs, Xbox 360 owners will be able to download Xbox Live Arcade games, Xbox Live Indie games, Games on Demand, DLC and Title Updates to the storage device. "USB storage devices may, however, have far greater memory capacity than MUs (at the date of writing, the largest MU is 512 MB), and may therefore support previously infeasible operations-such as installation of a full disc-based title." That's right, you can also store disc-based games to the USB device; however, it will require the disc to be in the tray for authentication, identical to the current functionality.

According to the document, the USB mass storage device must be at least 1GB and the system will do a compatibility check. "The system partition occupies 512 MB of space, and by default the consumer partition occupies the remainder of the device capacity, or 16 GB, whichever is smaller." Upon inserting a blank USB storage device, "consumers are offered two choices: 'Configure now' or 'Customize'." The "Configure now" option will use "the entire device capacity, up to the maximum of 512 MB plus 16 GB" meaning, regardless of the overall size of the device you're using, the Xbox will only enable 16 GB of usable, non-system storage. The "Customize" option will allow you to "preserve some pre-existing, non-console data on the device" such as music.
