M-spot Movies

Okay, for those of you who like to rent movies (brand spanking new, just came out this Tuesday, not on Netflix yet movies) this may be the place for you. This is a streaming site, so no downloading necessary (nor is it an option). So depending on how you like to watch your movies, this may or may not work for you. You have the option of watching on your pc, which, if it's attached to a 32" inch TV like mine, is not a bad option. The video and sound quality are pretty good through the browser and you have 24 hours to finish the movies once you've started watching it. The timer doesn't start on that until you hit play. They gave about ten days to start watching movie before the rental would expire. You also have the option of taking your movie mobile on your phone BUT only via streaming video using your phone's network. I have a Samsung Galaxy Tablet (Android) that is wi-fi only. It would not let me access the mobile site to finish watching a movie that I started on my PC unless I turned off the wi-fi and used the phone's internet service. Apparently, the iPhone is able to use the wi-fi setting, but any other type of phone is not due to licensing issues. I was able to access the movie on my Android phone via my phone's internet connection and again the quality of sound and video was still pretty good, albeit the screen was tiny. What I really liked about this site is they don't ask you for a credit card to register and browse the movie selection. I registered because I wanted to test it out and they do have a free rental, which is the one I used to test it out. They are using a credit system. You buy your credits and use them towards your rentals. They also offer a "club" option that is basically a monthly subscription and they give you so many credits to use. So I gave them the three stars because I really like their site, but I couldn't use my tablet (which is what I really wanted to do) via my wi-fi connection. I may still use them to watch movies on my computer if I am dying to see it, because the prices are typical of a new release rental ($3.99 for most).
