In addition to Groove’s massive library of songs, listeners will also have access to iHeartRadio’s catalog of more than 20 million songs and 800,000 artists as well as thousand of Live Radio stations.
 
“We are thrilled to bring iHeartRadio to Groove to create a complete, end to end music experience for Windows 10 consumers,” said Todd Brix, GM of the Windows Store and Developer Marketing for Microsoft. “Groove delivers one place to access your music, your radio stations and your premium subscription music.”

For a low monthly fee, the Groove Music Pass lets listeners stream and download music from one of the largest music catalogs on the planet on a PC, tablet, Xbox, and other devices (including iOS and Android).
