A few months ago info leaked out that OneDrive was getting ready for music storage then Microsoft confirmed, and now it's here. Xbox Music and OneDrive are connected, so any music files (MP3, M4A, or WMA) you drop in your "Music" folder on Microsoft's cloud storage are immediately playable via the web or Xbox Music apps on Windows 8, Windows Phone 8.1, Xbox 360 and Xbox One -- for free. The initial leak suggested there would be 20GB of storage, but Xbox Music's paying Music Pass subscribers will get an additional 100GB of space. It's very similar to Google Play Music's free cloud storage offering, with the only problem the Microsoft's service won't reach your Android phone, and Google's isn't on your Xbox.
