Microsoft provides first official look at Spotify on Xbox One
As can be seen in the video above at the 9-minute mark, the Guide panel on the left side of the screen shows off Spotify running in the background. While Microsoft's Larry Hryb - better known as "Major Nelson" - doesn't acknowledge the app in the video per se, it seems like an obvious nod of confirmation to earlier reports.
he app is titled "Spotify Music - for Xbox", but it remains to be seen whether it will publicly launch under the same name. It is important to note that the service recently made its way to the Windows Store as a converted Desktop Bridge app for PCs, rather than a Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app, which means that it cannot run on the Xbox One. As such, it'll be interesting to see if Spotify is building a UWP application from the ground up - which could potentially end up on other Windows 10 devices - or if it's engineering a dedicated app for the Xbox One only.

So excited that Spotify and SoundCloud are on Xbox One now, love listening through one headset as oppose to my laptop.

Pretty nice the sound cloud / audiocloud app on the Xbox one is always nice and can play in background, however sound cloud does allow uploaded to lock tracks to web version only. Only noticed it with one artist who was doing it.

Play games and listen to music from my Spotify while playing my favorites games. I hope that this actually becomes a thing and not just something that randomly gets cut off.

This would be an excellent addition. Chill, game all while listening to your favourite tunes.
