Microsoft bringing cloud music player to SkyDrive.com

Back in May 2011 when Microsoft first announced Windows Phone 7.5 “Mango”, we reported on some indications that “Mango” might support music streaming from SkyDrive (although later denied by Microsoft).

Microsoft goes further down on my list of favorite companies. Oh, wait, it's already at the bottom.

Nucky3945d ago

Shouldn't Samsung be at the bottom of your list? I mean, having that avatar has to mean something, right?

AtomicGerbil3945d ago

Very difficult to believe you I'm afraid.

Reborn3945d ago

Well, surely you didn't expect them to say.. "yes, yes we do".

In2iti0n3945d ago

I like that. That's funny.
Nobody expected them to say "yes, yes we do". They could just ignore the accusations, and move on.

Reborn3945d ago
