Didn't Kaz made fun of the cloud to announce...a cloud service?
Anyway I'm with eFKac on this one, but it depends on how many games are available on this service. Why would I ever buy more than 1 device when I can just buy 1 and play all games in there? I honestly don't understand this. Depending on how they manage this it could potentially hurt some hardware sells.
Edit: is it just to play old games? well in that case this doesn't matter.

It's basically BC.

The two main announcements today are all to push sony hardware.
That is the only reason for this.
Now, the question is. Is it enough to pursuade the buying public to buy a sony tv, a vaio or a tablet.
THAT is what this is about. This is the end game of what sony has been trying to do for the last 5 years.
if they succeed and people start buying sony hardware to get to this content then sony is back
if they fail... they are fucked. Its really that simple.

...In addition to PlayStation platforms, most 2014 US models of Sony’s BRAVIA TV lineup will support PS Now. Eventually the service will expand beyond PlayStation platforms and Sony devices, allowing you to stream PlayStation games across a broad range of Internet-connected devices...
From the press release. Aaand this whole post was wrong.

eventually. If you think this is even remotely imminent then you are naive. They are losing money on hardware (TV's and the rest) and bleeding marketshare, this MIGHT help.

Well either I am naive, or you can't see and understand their vision (well my vision for their vision, for now). We'll see who will be right.
