Well, lets trace this subject back to its origin, shall we? Somebody said what is stopping sony from making a game exclusive to psnow. Meaning that game would always need to be online in order to play it.
You said not possible as it is ps3 infrastucture and all ps3 games are available at retail...
however, that does not stop new games from being made that are exclusive to the psnow program. Just because it is starting out as a service for old ps3 games doesnt mean it will always be that way. In fact, it is pretty much guaranteed that as time goes on they will upgrade their infrastructure and add more games that havent been on any sony console before.
One even more likely example would be regional exclusive games being put on psnow. If somebody doesnt want to pay the huge cost of importing a game, psnow would be their only option. Which would require that game being always online.
The door is WIDE open for sony to use their cloud service to require online as well.

Until they completely replace their current (and might I add, NEW...) PS Now infrastructure, no, it's not open at all. It is pretty clear that this is never going to happen to PS4. While MS is planning on adopting it already with the XB1, Sony has basically shut that option out and ps4 owners won't be affected.
If you want to talk PS5 and XB2, that's another matter and 100% speculative. Not to mention it doesn't affect PS4 and XB1 owners.
