I am unsure how it works but you might be able to clarify:

- Is it required to be online in order to play the games?

- Can you buy the games?

- Can you somehow borrow the games to your friends or (if it is possible to buy games) resell them?

I assume piracy as kind of stopped by PS Now which is kind of the very purpose of DRM. I am going by wiki, which isn´t the most reliable source but: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Rights_Management

no

yes

yes

Because you can buy disc or digital. PS Now is an optional service

I was asking those questions in regards to PS Now. So the games you buy on PS Now can be played offline? I thought it was a streaming service? I don´t care if you can buy games physically, any game that you buy and cannot copy, resell or lend to someone else, has DRM attached to it. Every game I buy on XBLA has DRM, since they are all digital.
