There was hope. There were rumors. There was a chance that with the Windows Phone Mango update we could stream music files from our SkyDrive accounts.
But those hopes were dashed in a comments section over at the windowsteamblog. In a question to Mike Torres, a Microsoft's Group Program Manager for SkyDrive, in the comments section of his post on the new features heading to SkyDrive he was asked,
"If there is an mp3-File on skydrive is it possible to stream it to the phone?"
His response was short, sweet and to the point.
"With MP3s, the Office hub won't stream your MP3s, no."
So it looks as if the hopes of streaming music from the cloud have been dashed for now. Still, the eternal optimist might point out that while Torres rules out the possibility to stream music to the Office Hub, he didn't rule out streaming music to the Zune Hub....
Or am I reading too much in between the lines?
