I am sure people said the same thing when Netflix was first starting to stream videos....but, I can tell you, my blu-ray (or DVD) buying days are about over at this point.  Granted, movies dont have the same replay value that a game has...but if you have access to thousands of games, ON DEMAND, 24/7, why would you feel compelled to own any?  The initial 100 titles or so availalbe on PS Now right now are just the beginning.

You do realize that with movies you can pause and wait for the movie to buffer while with games you need an actually good broadband, right? I mean can you imagine needing to time your attacks perfectly and losing to a boss because the game froze? Pretty sure you can't rewind if you miss something or if someone attacks you while you were waiting for the game to respond.

I tried the service, as it is RIGHT NOW, on my internet connection and it was as good as playing natively on my PS3.
