Report: Xbox Music launches this month with free ad-supported streaming
The service will supposedly provide both subscription-based and free ad-supported streaming music plans for Xbox 360, Windows 8 and Windows Phone users. Microsoft SkyDrive integration is also said to factor heavily into the service's functionality, allowing for synced playlists and music libraries across all supported devices.
These claims match an earlier report from last June, in which Bloomberg claimed that Xbox Music would launch with Spotify-like streaming options and cloud storage capabilities. Microsoft did state shortly thereafter that reports of it "launching a new music service on Xbox this fall are inaccurate," only to discontinue certain Zune services the following month.
Personally, all we care about is whether we'll be able to use this new service to watch Girls' Generation videos, regardless of when it actually comes out.

Right i have something quiet relevant for this...
i own a Microsoft windows 7 phone and optionally every month for 4.95 you get zune music pass, which essentially lets you download any available albums for free and play them within that month but you cant copy them off the device fully,or distribute them.
This ALSO links onto your xbox, meaning you get he zune pass on your Xbox zune market place for music allowing unlimited streaming and insome cases downloading(must be online to play the downloaded music) So why is there now being released a xbox music that from the pictures shows it on the Phone and tablets? zune already has this covered....
