Windows Phone 7 Mango Allows Streaming In SkyDrive (video)

Microsoft is damn well on the verge of some serious ass kicking with the next version of Windows Phone 7 called Mango. Fans of SkyDrive will be happy to know that the forthcoming update will make it possible for users to stream music stored on their SkyDrive, how exciting is that.

While the experience doesn’t appears to be as seamless as iCloud and Google Music, it doesn’t needs to be considering that Zune is apart of Windows Phone 7. For those who are behind the times, Zune allows you to stream millions of music for a price per month, and from my experience, it is better than anything Apple and Google are offering right now.

From the video below, the downside to streaming music via SkyDrive is the fact that it takes you to the browser first where you are required to tap the song once more before Zune player opens. However, as I said, it is not that of a huge deal if you are a Zune Pass subscriber, but for those who aren’t, this is going to smash your backdoor in.
