Streaming Music

if you are in the US you can use the Pandora app to play music in your stream but most other music apps on Xbox don't play background music in streams.

I couldn't find anything else to play music when I streamed on Mixer and Pandora isn't available where I am.

Xbox Music on the Xbox console is used for streaming music using the Xbox Music Pass. Music that you've purchased through Zune can be streamed from your PC or Network Hard Drive using the built-in media player.

My guess is that you're not actually streaming the music from your PC, but you're rather streaming it from the Xbox Music catalog.

Its not music streaming. Its gameplay streaming.

that article has no quote that the only way to play your music is through the xbox music streaming app, the writer never even states that xbox music is only the default music app, however, he clearly misleads the reader to believe you will not be able to
stream music you own without paying. honestly its some horrendous journalism.

even if ms isnt providing a music streaming app, it will only be a matter of time before one of the many ms approved metro or winp8 music streaming apps is ported to x1.

it should also be noted that the win8p xbox music app allows you to play your own music/mp3s, so id imagine it is only a matter of time before they add this feature to x1 xbox music app.
