mSpot joins video-on-demand fray -- Amazon, Apple, Netflix have reason to worry?

Popular music streaming service company mSpot is jumping into the video streaming arena, and in a big way.

They're introducing the mSpot Movies Club, a monthly subscription based streaming service for computers and mobile devices. Better yet, they're undercutting their competitors on new releases by a whopping 99 cents, which in the mobile world, actually matters.

I had the opportunity to take the service for a spin using mSpot's Movies 2 app and I must admit, everything worked like a charm.

"TRON: Legacy" streamed with nary a hiccup on hi-bandwidth while I was on Wi-Fi and while it wasn't quite as stellar on 3G, it's definitely usable and still enjoyable.

Pausing and having the movie pick up where I left off on my desktop browser was really impressive, and if mSpot can keep this up as more users jump on board, it's going to put some serious pressure on their competitors in the market.

Full PR after the jump.
