Music streaming service Rdio now available from the Windows Store

Beats Music, Xbox Music, Spotify, Pandora, Songza and Rdio are just some of the popular streaming music services available for you today. Those just listed all have apps in the Windows Phone Store, but might not all be available in the Windows Store. Today you can add Rdio as an app available for Windows 8.1 customers.

Head into the Windows Store and you'll find Rdio (www.rdio.com) for Windows 8.1. You're not going to be blown away by the app at first, but it's nice to see it join the Windows Store. With the app, you get access to the 20 million plus tracks available on Rdio. You also get some Windows 8.1 specific features like a Live tile and the ability to pin albums to your Start screen.

Like we said, the app is certainly functional, but it's really just the Rdio website wrapped into an app. Touch targets are small, and the app works better with a mouse than it does your finger. Still it's a start, and maybe we'll see Rdio give their Windows 8 the work it deserves.

Fan of Rdio? Take it for a spin and let us know what you think.
