Xbox Music Pass
If you want to listen to unlimited music without ads, you can buy an Xbox Music Pass for $9.99 a month. In addition to streaming music, you'll be able to download songs you like for no extra charge. Some songs may not be available through your Xbox Music Pass, so if you want to listen to those songs you'll need to buy them separately.
For more information, go to the Xbox Music Pass website.
