Microsoft to Give Up Streaming Music
Microsoft could have purchased Spotify for $16 billion but now, they are leaving the streaming to Spotify alone. Rather than purchase the company, they are expanding their relationship with Spotify. Groove Music customers can move all of their playlists and collections directly into Spotify. Here’s what Groove Music says:
*An update to the Groove Music app including the ability to move music to Spotify, will be available for Windows Insiders beginning this week (10/2/17). The Groove Music app update for Windows 10 and Xbox One devices will roll out broadly the week of October 9, 2017and will enable Groove Music Pass customers to move existing music collections and playlists to Spotify. Groove Music Pass content will be available to move to Spotify until at least January 31, 2018.
