Alright, so my Xbox hard drive is pretty much full, and I've deleted every useless thing I've found on it. It has slightly over 100MB of space left. I know, that's a ridiculously tiny amount. I'll be getting a bigger hard drive as soon as I can, but I don't have the money for it right now, which is the reason I have the question that I have. I'm trying to download one last bit of DLC for Dead Rising 2, and I'm going to either temporarily delete some of my DLC for another game or just wait to get it until I actually purchase my new hard drive, which won't be for a while. I was thinking of just deleting my Fallout 3 DLC since I have the GOTY edition. So, my question is this: if I delete my Fallout 3 DLC, am I going to be able to use the DLC disc to put it all back on my hard drive, or is there something on the disc that prevents it from being used more than once or from putting the DLC on the same Xbox/storage device/gamertag more than once? My guess is that there isn't and that I'll be able to use the disc to put it back on just fine, but I just want to make absolutely sure before I go deleting things.
 
I have all my Fallout 3 DLC on discs and I've deleted and reinstalled them several times. So, you should be alright.
 
Yeah, Queen is right. It's unlimited and perfectly safe, done it countless times with Oblivion GOTY.

Additionally, the same can be said for DLC you downloaded from XBL, which can be re-downloaded at anytime should you happen to delete it from the HDD.

Wow...I feel like an idiot for forgetting about that option. Anyway, thanks guys.
 
As the others have said, you can remove and reinstall the content as many times as you wish with content you have on discs and content you download off the marketplace. The only times it causes issues is if you have a saved game that includes items from DLC in it and you uninstall the DLC and then play the game again without installing the DLC again. It can corrupt your game/saves as the DLC items are no longer in the game.

Let's say I uninstall the DLC and don't play the game until I put the DLC back onto my hard drive. That won't cause any problems, right?

Right, you'll be fine as long as you don't play/save without the DLC.

Yeah thats right, its just removing files then trying to play it and save confuses the game and throws up all kinds of issues. So long as the files are replaced before you try and play it again it will be fine.
 
I have the Oblivion game of the year edition and it has all the DLC on a separate dicsk which i have used many, many times.
