Microsoft Will Push to Get Its Game-Streaming Service on Apple's Mobile Platforms

Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) launched its xCloud streaming service on Sept. 15, but the streaming-based delivery platform is currently only available on Android platforms. xCloud, which allows users to play high-end video games through streaming, hasn't launched on Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) iOS phones and tablets due to App Store policies. But Microsoft isn't giving up. 

Phil Spencer, the head of Microsoft's Xbox gaming division, said Monday that the company remains committed to bringing its game-streaming app to iOS devices. Apple currently does not allow apps that stream large libraries of games on its mobile platforms, but Spencer indicated that there are ongoing discussions between the companies about bringing xCloud to the App Store.
