Xbox One will be DLNA-compatible, supports audio CD playback, Microsoft confirms

Microsoft confirmed its Xbox One will be DLNA-compatible — meaning it can act as a receiver when streaming media from other devices — and will support audio CD playback, though the system itself won't support CD ripping, MP3 storage or playback.

News of Xbox One's support for media streaming and CD playback comes in the wake of an announcement from Sony that its PlayStation 4 won't support either feature, despite being supported by the company's current console, the PlayStation 3. Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios president Shuhei Yoshida later said he was sharing feedback to the announcement with the PS4 development team for "future consideration."

In a statement to Polygon, Microsoft spokespeople said the company is working to get Xbox One DLNA-certified. The Xbox One can act as a Play To receiver, allowing users to stream content from supported devices, like Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 computers and "many Windows Phones."

While Xbox One supports audio CD playback, it does not support CD ripping, a spokesperson said, a feature of the Xbox 360. It also doesn't support MP3 or AAC playback from devices like the iPod, iPhone, Zune or Windows Phone over USB. A statement notes that Xbox Music, which carries a $9.99 monthly subscription, will deliver "unlimited ad-free music through a Xbox Music Pass subscription" on Xbox One.

quit trying to make it like its the same situation. You can stream music/movies directly from your PC. You can play CD's and dlna will be supported.

On ps4 you cant do any of that. $60 subscription or nothing

 

[FloorGeneral]

So, the same exact situation as the PS4. How...unsurprising. Get ready to hear about MP3 support "coming soon".

 

[MeachTheMonster]

Misleading thread titles again. @Liquid are you gonna continue to allow these people to mislead our community

 

[satam55]

just as bad a ps4

It looks like they planned on going the same route as Sony with a music service, but are revisiting their positions and acting like these are features they had planned out like "It's in the process of certification" "we don't support MP3's yet, but it was always in the pipeline". fukk outta Here!

at that BS statement about the Xbox1 needing to be DLNA-certified. They designed the system to be all-in-1 entertainment box 1st, game console 2nd. They just wanted folks to signup for Xbox Music. DLNA is gonna need to be patched.

 

[Smooth3d]

You can stream music from computer and it still plays cd. Its still more than Ps4

 

[Snitchin Splatter]

such a stan you can still stream media like normal. I don't know anybody who was loading mp3's on to their xbox's themselves.

Can even play CD's

No no no. Sony removed all abilities to use your own media so you have to play for their services.

Xbox has plenty of options to watch your own media, plus free music players that you can use.

Not the same situation at all. Why lie so much? Every thread you make is a big ass lie.

at you and your thread making privileges

 

[MeachTheMonster]

you mean like xbots have been doing for months

Not one. Unless your talking about courtdog. The rest of us don't engage in these shenanigans

Yup. I told y'all when we found out about the PS4 that the X1 would most likely end up being the same, and with that wording about DLNA, that was 100% correct.

I'll also say the same thing I said about the PS4 (re: DLNA): most of us already have numerous devices in our house that can do it, I don't see the uproar of either of the new systems NOT having it. Of course, they're getting it anyways because of the backlash, but it's amazing that ppl are foaming at the mouth over the ability to do something we can already do with what we have now.
