It could be that Microsoft could be about to make us pay for a feature previously allowed for FREE!!...

You are confusing the xCloud service with streaming locally.

Xcloud allows you to stream games you do NOT own to your console. You basically "rent" access to the games which run on server hardware somewhere in the cloud, and stream the video feed to any device that supports xCloud. Be it your home console, your tablet,
smartphone or whatever. It's like Google's Stadia or what Sony does to bring backward compatibility to some Playstation games.

This is vastly different to the home streaming that allows you to stream the video feed from your console that plays the games you "own" to a device that supports local streaming.

Unless you are trying to allow thousands of people to access your own console from the internet to stream your games to them, you are not doing anything similar to xCloud.

So don't make up some crazy conspiration theory like "Microsoft is taking away our streaming, so we have to pay to use xCloud"

Are you using the Xbox Console Companion on your PC trying to stream from Xbox or the Xbox Game Streaming (Preview)?

Try going to Device connections on your Xbox and make sure Xbox is able to connect.

Also check Allow Play To streaming and Allow game streaming to other devices.

System > Devices & streaming > Device connections

Hey Egger81 thanks for the reply!

Check that your Xbox One console allows game streaming. You’ll find this on the console by going to
Settings, selecting Preferences >
Xbox app connectivity, and then selecting Allow game streaming to other devices.

Thank you for taking the time to post this on the Xbox Forums. We understand that you are seeking a way to use your mobile device to use Xbox Console Streaming.

In order for you to be able to use this, you will need to install the
Xbox Insider Hub on your console, and update your console to use at least the
Omega ring.

This will in turn allow you to configure your console from a new option in your
Devices & streaming to allow you to set-up Console streaming.

This should then allow you to see your console in the Console streaming section of the
Xbox Game Streaming app.

You should be able to find more info on this on the
Xbox Game Streaming Support Hub.

I hope this is of some use to you.
