Microsoft has moved to correct reports from earlier this week (link below) which claimed CEO Steve Ballmer announced plans to launch a new console-based service called Xbox Music this autumn. According to the platform holder, Ballmer was referring to Zune Music functionality on the Xbox 360, activated via Kinect voice command. “Reports that Microsoft is launching a new music service on Xbox this fall are inaccurate,” the company said in a statement. “A recent demonstration of upcoming Xbox features showcased what we will deliver later this fall on Xbox, including voice search with Bing on Xbox to locate and access entertainment content on the console. This includes Zune music which has a catalog of more than 11 million tracks.”
