14 DAY TRIAL // Ubuntu One, a cloud service operated and administered by Canonical, the makers of the Ubuntu Linux distribution, can now be used to stream music.
Users can now listen to any song, either they are on a mobile environment or just in the web browser of their desktop PC. Canonical managed to push this update before the holidays, making it a nice tool to use around Christmas.
According to Canonical, web music streaming lives in the new Music tab on the U1 dash when you log in to one.ubuntu.com. With song, artist and album views, simple playlist creation, queue management and random play, you’ll be able to listen to your music in your favorite way.
Unfortunately, the service is not free, although the price is quite low if you fancy music that much. You can choose from two subscriptions, one at 3.99 USD (3.06 EUR) per month or 39.99 USD (30.67 EUR) per year. This will get you 20 GB of space, up from the 5 GB the standard Ubuntu One account offers.
If your interested in the complete details of the service, you can check out the complete announcement on the official website.
