I could actually see them doing that. $15-25 a month for a subscription that lets you play your digital library on any enabled device. Thats like Remote Play but with an Emeral BAM!

It would also help them to nudge people away from physical.


$15-25 is a bit steep to play games i already purchased but i would totally pay $5-10.


I don't see that happening man.

For a hypothetical understanding:
Renting a PS4 for 5 years would be $400/60 = $6.67 a month (no interest or tax). The electric fee on top of that will be probably $5-10 for the average gamer. This means just for hardware + electrical costs we are already at $11.67-16.67 a month. But since its server farms instead of individual units... lets half that and say $5.84-8.35 a month. This doesn't include the salaried employees or even the licensing costs. 

If you calculate the overhead that Sony has to pay for PS Now -- $15 is kinda a steal man.
