Dashboard beta leaks new Xbox Music Pass Cloud playlists and early pricing revealed

Appearing soon after Zune’s end, we’ve been sent these images of what Microsoft’s likely to offer in Xbox Music. Matching those early rumors, it looks like some cloud-linked features will make an appearance in the form of synchronized playlists, while the service will offer a free half-month trial alongside paid subscriptions. Prices are currently set at £8.99 ($15) for a month, while £89.90 ($146) will offer a year’s unlimited access to “millions” of tracks, to stream and download across Xbox, Windows, and Windows Phone. The system’s UI seems to borrow its looks from Windows’ Metro tile-based style, with a very similar keyboard that appears to be navigable from your Xbox controller. Take a tour of the gallery below and expect to hear more specifics ahead of the big Windows 8 launch next month.
