Since you download the games from MS Store, I am pretty sure that MS is the one providing the server.

Would you say that a rental service is sometyhing that you pay for to get access to a product for a limited period of time?

Plus is a service for PS4, that as a bonus gives you free games.

Now is a rental service nothing more for just about any platform capable of streaming any where theres adequate net access, no difference at all.

It was a response to, "Ill side with sonys view, their mentality is best pro me pro PS owner."

PS Now doesn't represent that so I used it as an example.

The plot is a certain company would like nothing more than any thing to see the game console industry go away.

It was never about trying to build it into as a core part of its company, its about trying to make the gamers return to the gate toll for all games to be design, distribution, and use one Operating system, one Eco system one platform to be the only platform for gamers to have the most upto date games made for the most widely used OS, but the ironic thing is now there is more than just one Eco system OS.

That main point is new games  are being made for that OS an being included not excluded with no driver support so as to be, if you want the most upto date OS drivers for your computer please step up to the Window.  

Now its just as viable with market share and mind share enough that the idea of killing this market to reduce competition may end of more of a problem because now Steam OS is being positioned into the market to be the main OS for new games to be made for another OS and not just only a certain companies OS and this OS is open Source for with Valve being the head toll gate position.

and that one company.

May now have to be looking through a window looking in, instead of looking out.

Completely agree. I personally thought MS´s original version was better, where I acually was given games for my subscription fee, games I could keep even if I no longer subscribed.

I do realize that the model Sony chose would be the one every company would jump on though. They presented a model where we as subscribers are never owners of the products, making it a better sell for Sony towards 3rd parties. Rental services are never good for the consumer longterm since you pay more for less, but you do get to play games you otherwise would´nt have played.

Now that we have these services, I´d rather see good competition instead of a few controlling the market. That is why I welcome EAA aswell as other services.

Nothing and. But having such prices in a beta is not going to convince people for a service. Of course Sony paid a *lot* of money for Gaikai and probably had to pay a lot for new data-centers and peering connections but the prices are way too high. Generally a Beta should always be free, in my opinion.

Is a game free, if it is taken away from your posession the moment you don´t subscribe?

Thats not true at all, if I can purchase the game through plus I get a discount on games if I can out right buy the game if there is a yellow discount price, being a playstation+ member also allows games to be purchased or free to keep even if my playstation + account is not payed upkeep

Do you buy used cars with the intent of punishing the manufacturer? No.

Did you suggest buying used games to punish the publisher? Yes. "Buy their games used not new, only way they understand is if you hit their wallet. "

You encourage people to continue enjoying EA's games, but get them used to avoid contributing anything. That's a parasite.
