Gross...I don't know, I think renting a game for a week for $8 is not unreasonable, especially if they build out the system to support all tablets and smart tvs.

$15 - $30 should be the equivalent of purchasing a game, not 30 - 90 days of access. Hence, only offering rental options is a joke for that kind of money.

When I buy a game on the PS Store I have unlimited access. That's the way it should be on PS Now.

Isn't this the same company that mocked MS about borrowing games? PS Now is even worse.

Letting you rent games is now worse than not letting you simply lend or resell your bought games? Ok...

Prices might be too steep and a full purchase option would be nice, let's see how they deal with this, after all this is a beta, which is there to sort out problems. Though one can't forget that there are probably very high ongoing server costs with this, I just doubt that they'll want you to be able to buy those games and then stream them forever thus creating ongoing costs for them without you paying. So I really wouldn't hold my breath for a full purchase option, a Netflix like subscription model might be a solution though.
