mSpot, the service that allows users to upload their own music and then stream it to their computers and mobile phones, announced its Android app has crossed the 500,000 downloads mark since the June 28 launch. Additionally, the application got few neat updates, including voice-activated playback via song/artist/album search for Android, ability to stream songs without actually storing them locally (for conserving space on SD cards) and support for USB sideloading music files directly from your computer to the phone.
And that’s not all. Actually that’s all when it comes to mSpot’s Android app. The other news is the change in the pricing model. The 2GB of storage remains free but there’s also a new plan, offering up to 40GB of storage for $3.99 a month. The new plan is now mSpot’s only premium offering, effectively replacing various other plans that topped out at 100GB for $13.99 a month.
Finally, in addition to Android, mSpot works on various other platforms, iOS-based devices included.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
