While we not-so-patiently anticipate Apple to assist you to stream your iTunes library in your iPhone, mSpot has taken the liberty of doing it for them. It’s true! And here’s how it works.
The service seems ordinarily a dead ringer for the Android version released this June; your library is stored in mSpot’s cloud, and might be accessed via either desktop or iOS devices once you choose. And the rates seem reasonable: free cloud storage up to 2GB, while 40GB will cost you $4/month.
Just a patch until Apple finally comes around to iTunes Live ? Maybe! But if that wait is long enough, and mSpot proves reliable, we might not need Cupertino’s cloud in spite of everything.
