It has been reported that the xbox 360 has been hacked again, not with a kiosk demo this time, but with a hot swap method, similar to how we had to do with the saturn systems. There is at least one video out there on this.
While this is not a way to get any signed code, it still is an alternative form of booting up recorded media. It is assumed that the signed code is passed on during the initial bootup phase and then *not* randomly accessed throughout the game. In other words, if this hack is legit, you could swap the disc out, and then not have to worry about the xbox 360 constantly doing security checks. It also means that, like I said, if this hack is legit, that people have copied the 360 games succesfully.
