Music Streaming Apps and Consoles, Will We Ever See Game Implementation?

About a year ago PlayStation Released a major update that introduced Spotify to the system with fairly deep integration with smartphones. We can stream Spotify from our phones to our PS4 within seconds as well as turn it up and down with just the press of a volume button. Today, we are still waiting for Microsoft to do the same, why this hasn't happened yet is a topic for another discussion. When Microsoft does eventually allow Music Streaming while gaming full screen (not snapped) we see this integrate with games themselves?

I doubt games would have music streaming integration. They would let Microsoft and Sony handle it.

Exactly. Spotify is good enough and is so easy, there is no point in wasting resources to put it in.

Except didn't the 360 have it as an option from launch?

Rally don't get why such things have taken years to implement with the next gen.

Yeah i dont see how a game would improve over ps music. It already turns off in game music.

the xbox 360 had the ability to play custom music in the background but i don't think you could listen to music and the game sound at the same time. i can't remember exactly. some games did allow use to choose your music if i am not mistaken.

this is really about the developers intent. some actually pay quite heavily for the use of the licence songs so i doubt they want people to over-ride that with their own music built in.

Doing a proper custom soundtrack requires the ability to assign specific tracks & playlists to specific areas of the game. For that, you need integration built into the game, itself.
