I want to mod my xbox 360, but should I really? Will I be able to play on LIVE with a modded 360?

Question

I bet there are thousands of these questions, but please, some one help me out.

I want to mod my 360, since I have a lot of games and use gamefly, I would like to make a backup of each copy (per § 117. Limitations on exclusive rights: Computer programs, it is legal)

However, In order to play the backups I need to flash my xbox 360 with firmware.

What are the risks involved? If I mod it will it be noticed by MS and be banned if I go on LIVE?

Please someone fill me in, I want to, but want to be able to play on LIVE.

If anybody can recommend me to some links or somekind of xbox 360 firmware toolkit please do. Will be greatly appreciated, will pick best answer immediately.

One more question, I have Gigaware DVD-R (4.7 GB capacity), will that work with my modded 360?)

Thanks!
