Microsoft Launches Xbox music on web for free

Microsoft is making its Xbox music streaming service available for free on the web-even to those who don’t use window 8.

The expansion beyond windows 8 devices and Xbox game consoles starting Monday is intended to bring new customers into the software giants eco-system  of devices and services and could help it complete with other digital music offerings like pandora, spotify and itunes.

 It is also an acknowledgement that the music service has not done much to drive sales of the windows 8 operating system.

Xbox music allows people to choose from 30 million tracks and stream them for free ads.

Microsoft is also updating its Xbox music interface by reducing the size of cover art but adding tabs to make it easier to create and manage playlists.
