Microsoft's Xbox Music service has been expanded with iOS and Android apps, and free web browser streaming.
Now a year old, Xbox Music is Microsoft's attempt to compete with other music streaming services like Spotify and Pandora.
Offering 30 million tracks, until recently Xbox Music was only available on Xbox 360, Windows Mobile and Windows 8 and RT devices.
Now Microsoft has released new Xbox Music apps on iOS (6.0 and above) and Android, as well as a new web version allowing anyone to stream music through a browser.
For the first six months the service offers free music streaming, after which users are limited to 10 hours per month. For longer than this, you'll need to sign up for an Xbox Music Pass, which offers unlimited streaming on all devices for £8.99 a month (or £89.90 for a year).
Free streaming is only available for those using the web version and devices running Windows 8 or later, meaning the iOS and Android apps can only be used by those signed up for the Xbox Music pass.
You can access the free web streaming version today by visiting theXbox Music website.
