The XBox Music App on Windows 8.1 has been really disappointing lately.  Since moving to Windows 8.1 and linking my hotmail account I have been receiving the dreaded "are you still listening?" notification.  I have turned off cloud use in the app and I have deleted ALL music on my cloud, and am only playing music stored on my local PC, yet I'm being asked if I'm still listening?  What does Microsoft care if I'm still listening to my own music?  Why try to pedal your music pass on me?  I have zero interest in paying to listen to my own music that I've already purchased.  I'm severely disappointed in this app.  I actually really like the layout and the setup, but need to get rid of the stupid message popup.  Does anyone have a workaround?  I haven't found anything past what I've already tried in my lengthy searches.

Hi,

What problem did you come across when you use XBox Music App?

If we don't want to receive this error message, we could sign out the subscription account.

The idea behind this is that, since we pay licensing and bandwidth costs for every track we stream, playing to an empty room gets pretty expensive, and therefore well pause the radio if youve been inactive for this given period of time.
