Xbox Music reportedly launching on October 26th for free

Microsoft (MSFT) will reportedly launch its Xbox Music service on October 26th and will make it available free of charge, The Verge reports. The streaming service will be offered as either a free ad-supported model or a subscription-based plan similar to the company’s Zune Music Pass, which is available for $10 a month or $100 a year. Xbox Music won’t just be limited to Microsoft’s gaming console, however, as the service will also be available on Windows Phone and Windows 8. 
Another key part of the service will be its integration with Microsoft’s SkyDrive that will allow users to store music and playlists in the cloud.Earlier price leaks revealed that Xbox Music will cost £8.99 for a monthly pass or £89.90 for an annual pass in the U.K. It has been reported that the software giant will also bring the service to Android and iOS devices, although no timeframe was given. Microsoft previously announced that Xbox Music will have a library of more than 30 million tracks.

Pop Up ad queen Caught by the U.S Government, Fined $163Million

You've probably never heard the name Kristy Ross before, but we're willing to bet you're very familiar with her work. You may have even given her money.

That's illegal, and it turns out the law has finally caught up to her: The Federal Trade Commission has just fined Ross a staggering $163 million dollars for her crimes.

Once you're hooked by the fraudulent warning, the advertisements redirect you to a page trying to sell you anti-virus software for $40 to $60 a pop. According to the government, "more than a million" were victims of Ross's scam. And g...

The 32-year-old has won numerous trophies both at club and international level, but still awaits his first hat-trick, and he sees the Clasico as the perfect opportunity for yet another milestone. "Is there something I have left to do? Scoring a hat-trick... I would be delighted to score one against Madrid," Xavi smiled at a press conference. "We're not really thinking about whether a win would worsen the problems in Madrid's squad. We are focussed on winning, which would be good for our morale." The influential playmaker then went on to discuss the situation of injured players such as Gerard Pique, Carles Puyol and Eric Abidal, who is continuing his recovery from a liver transplant earlier this year.
