According to Daren Tsui, CEO of mSpot, one of the toughest things about running a mobile entertainment company is “educating consumers that the phone can be an entertainment device,” although the iPhone is helping a lot in that department.
Judging from mSpot’s announcement this week that it now has more than four million paying subscribers, a 260% jump over the past year, it’s clear that consumers are finally starting to take advantage of what their cell phones have to offer.
The company’s flagship mSpot Radio service broadcasts more than 50 commercial-free music and talk radio stations and over 100 live local radio stations across the US.
