Well I'm keen on any initiative that keeps the cost of gaming down while allowing people to make a decent living from making great games.
I hope this business model works, because the current triopoly could do with a shake-up that Onlive doesn;t seem to have been able to deliver. I suspect though this is going to be a bit niche and won't have any greater impact than Onlive.
If they can make a system with multi-year longevity for $99 that's great. But equally if they could deliver really high quality gaming at a very low per game price then I think a higher spec'd piece of kit with a correspondingly higher (but not ridiculously high) prioce tag would have been fine and palatable to the market.
