Microsoft tunes up Xbox Music for iOS and Android

Microsoft has introduced Xbox Music to iOS and Android devices for the first time, as well as adding a free streaming service for Xbox Music via the web.
According to the Microsoft, the move "unifies" music across multiple devices and platforms. The Xbox Music Pass provides unlimited access to songs and artists with playback across tablets, PCs, phones and Xbox consoles for $9.99 per month or $99.99 per year. Add a song to a collection on an Xbox, and it will also be available via iOS, Android or Windows 8.
With the addition of free streaming on the web, the service provides on-demand access to 30 million songs globally on the Xbox Music Web player or through the Xbox Music app on all Windows 8 tablets and PCs.
“Xbox Music now, more than ever, powers music experiences between Windows 8, Xbox, Windows Phone, and now iOS, Android and the web,” Jerry Johnson, general manager of Xbox Music, said of the announcement.
"Discovering and enjoying free music is as easy as typing an artist or song name and hitting “play.” Songs are instantly available to stream at no cost and for you to create an unlimited amount of playlists.
"Microsoft will add Radio to the free Web player, a quick and dynamic way to personalize your collection, discover new favorites, and create ultimate playlists by launching instant mixes based on your favorite artists. With unlimited skips and a view of the full recommended music stream, Radio puts you in control of your Internet radio experience".
Xbox Music will be expanded on Windows 8 when it adds the anticipated new Web Playlist tool this autumn.
In the coming months, additional updates for iOS and Android platforms will become available, including an offline mode that lets users save music to their devices for playback without an internet or data connection.
