You’ll be able to stream songs, create playlists, download tracks and includes a Pandora like radio option. Free ad supported streaming is free but only on Windows 8. There is a catch though. Free streaming will be limited to only 10 hours after 6 months. And if you’re using Windows 7, the service will remain Zune Music and you won’t have access to the Xbox Music service’s new features. The grooviest feature is the Xbox Music Pass.

It also includes offline access approximately 70,000 music videos too.
