There is talk that Spotify and other streaming services are currently working on apps for Xbox One also so that's good news. =}
Edit:
Need to go to store on your Xbox One/Xbox.com or now on Xbox app mobile/PC and search for "Simple Background Music Player"
Need to have your USB key/external drive formatted as FAT32 or NTFS. (Or it saved in One drive its free up to 5GB) Your music must be in MP3, FLAC or WMA format and saved in a folder called "Xbox Music Library"
[b]Uuv reliably informs that last night's update to the app now allows it to support M4A files so iPod/phones etc. now work but only up to 200 songs and as of yet no shuffle feature.
Must need latest iTunes update as my iPod doesn't work and another user said iPhone doesn't work either. ={
[/b]
Doesn't currently work with Pandora or Audio CD apps without snapping. Doesn't support Spotify (as of yet).
[b]Please bump and like for other fellow gamers on Xbox One. Thank you [/b]

I just have Barry White in the chair next to me.

Spotify is great on PS4, even without premium you can choose what song is playing and fast forward etc.
-
They need to put Spotify in there. And revamp the app for Windows 10.
-
Spotify is awesome on PS4, always have it on while playing games.
-
The app now supports M4A files through a recent update, meaning my iTunes Library is compatible with it. Only thing left now is to raise the 200 song cap limit to a higher capacity, and add a shuffle feature! :)
-
It's dogshit. Up to 200 randomly selected songs and you don't get any options like looping or shuffle. Plus, one song plays once and stops. Garbage.
-
I'm waiting for it to work with Pandora.
-
-
If it's possible... Could you check if Pandora works while not snapped? I really dislike having it snapped constantly. But I'm super excited! Thanks for the heads up!
-
Is there a way to play music without a USB? Mine won't work in the Xbone.
-
I already have Spotify, pandora, etc on my PC while I game.
-
I don't think it'll work with my ipod but I can try I guess. Cool either way
-
I wish somebody would support googles streaming service. I'm not about to get rid of my dual unlimited music + youtube red for 8 bucks a month just to get Spotify or any sort of console exclusive music service. I end up just plugging my phone into some speakers at that point.
-
Would I be able to play the music from my phone instead of a USB?
-
Sounds good but Xbox doesn't read my Apple Lossless files.I'm not converting my whole library of music.
-
This should have been here three years ago. It was on the Xbox 360 ffs
-
Bump. I like how i read a comment comparing the 360 to LeBron and the Xbone to Curry.
-
Yaassss! I've been waiting for this for years.
-
Non-premium Spotify is horrible so unless you plan on paying £15 a month, you're really not missing out on anything.
-
Hmm.... Wonder if I could hook my phone up to the Xbox and select music on that.
-
Thanks! Been waiting for this
-
Please Spotify!
-
Too bad i don't have a computer to put any music on a USB. Guess I'll just be waiting for Pandora
-
Time to go pirate a bunch of music.
-
niiice!! I heard iheart radio and Pandora are coming soon.
-
Thanks mate!
