bucaneros vmu backup tool doesnt require bba, there are 4 copying modes: VMU>PC, PC>VMU, these probably require bba or coder cable, the other 2 are CD>VMU which lets you download the vm files corresponding to the vmi/vms you burned on the cd, and finally VMU>VMU to copy a file from a vm to another.

you could also buy a nexus vm and download dci files on the net, theres a cable to connect your nexus card to your pc so the files can be easily transfered without having to connect to the internet with the dc
