Microsoft is merging OneDrive and Xbox music, and users will be able to upload songs not in the Xbox music Store to the cloud

Microsoft is merging its online file storage service OneDrive with its own music streaming platform Xbox Music, allowing users to upload music that is not in the Xbox Music Store to the former and play the music stored in the cloud on any device running Xbox music.

Previously OneDrive's code had been found to hide a music folder (OneDrive music folders), which showed that: (1) users can upload music to the folder; (2) users can run Xbox music in any To play music that has been uploaded to the folder on the device.

Meet your OneDrive Music folder. Upload your music files to this folder, so, can play them via Xbox music from any of your devices. You can also add files to this folder using the OneDrive app for your computer. (See your OneDrive music folder.) Upload your music to the folder and you'll be able to play them on any device that supports Xbox music. You can also add files through the OneDrive application on your computer. ）

Currently, Xbox Music already has local musical scanning and matching (Scan-and-match) capabilities, and by further fusing OneDrive and Xbox music, users can upload the missing tunes in the Xbox Music Store, with Amazon and Google's music service is very similar.

The launch time for this new feature is not yet clear. In recent months, Microsoft has continued to improve its Xbox music service, adding offline support for its iOS and Android apps.
