Sad news for the dozens of you out there using Groove Music. Microsoft is shutting down the service soon and will migrate users to Spotify starting December 31. Customers will not be able to purchase songs and albums on the Windows Store. An update is scheduled to roll out next week for Windows Insiders, but users will have until January 31, 2018 to transfer completely from the service.
For the most part, Spotify offers a superset of Groove's music catalog, so except for a few edge cases, there's no reason to believe that moving to Spotify would be a great loss for Groove Music Pass customers. And because Spotify is available on Windows Phone, too, even the few users still left on Microsoft's failed mobile platform won't miss out.
