Valve reveals Steam Music features

Valve has unveiled more details for upcoming new feature Steam Music, which will allow Steam users to integrate their music collections into their Steam Library.

According to the announcement, Steam Music users will be able to browse their collection in Album and Artist views once they have linked their local music directory with Steam. The music player will also be accessible via the Steam overlay during gameplay, allowing users to manage playlists and browse songs.

The beta for Steam Music will be rolling out to the Big Picture and SteamOS interfaces, with desktop functionality allegedly "soon to follow". To participate in the Steam Music Beta, users can join the Steam Music community group for the opportunity to receive an invitation.
