It's good value for someone who is only interested in Paying $8 once for 1 game for a week (or more). I think most people agreed the 4 hours option was a bit silly but the other options on the list seemed fair based on known rental prices of games back when Blockbuster existed.
All of these services are good value for those individuals willing to pay for them and get the value out. I do not believe in reality any of them are good value for overall consumer base, including PS+ or Live because it's the idea you have to keep paying to play the game. An example, I still play Tekken 6 to this day, I bought it for £25 5 years ago. If I were to pay £20 a year and every year since just to keep playing 1 or a few games I enjoyed from the service, I'd end up paying more. I may have well just bought the game. What happens when they remove that games from the service? What about in another 6 years time? My physical copy I can still play.
PS Now isn't like that however, it's not forcing you to subscribe to a service and making you pay every month to allow you to play the games, it's pay once for a period. You know what you are getting. It seems like old school rental, just streaming instead.
Hmm, pie.
