How To Download Music On Xbox 360 For Free

So you’ve got a new iPhone, and you’ve got an Xbox 360 hooked up to your massive television set. It’s a pretty awesome entertainment center you’ve got set up. Now wouldn’t it be nice if you could listen to all your iPhone’s music through your Xbox? Unfortunately, Apple and Microsoft aren’t exactly known for making devices that play well together, and your iPhone and Xbox 360 are no exception. Even with the latest update, your Xbox 360 won’t recognize the music files on your iPhone without some tweaking. Older generation iPods will be readable when plugged in, but if you’ve got a late model iPod touch or iPhone, the process of playing music through your Xbox can be quite tedious.

Luckly, there are a number of different ways to work around this annoying lack of connectivity. Some are easier and more convenient than others, but after trying nearly every method out there, we’ve concluded that the following approach is the best.

Before we begin, you should know that this method is going to put you back $2.99—but we think that’s pretty reasonable, especially because you won’t ever have to plug your phone into your Xbox 360 ever again. The added convenience is well worth the price of admission.
