Oh boy... how do you come up with this nonsense?

Did you consider Sony legally can't give us access to all of our digital content for use on PS Now? Atleast not without permission.

Also, PS Plus probably wouldn't cover the bandwidth cost of PS Now. Sony paid hundreds of millions for Gaikai, they don't want people playing free. Instead you would have to pay another fee to play your games on PS Now.

Read my post again buddy... in fact, read my reply to the OP. I said the exact same thing you did in regards to PS+ not covering the costs.

$2.5-4.16 does not cover the server costs. However, $15-20 would.

Right, so we agree it would have to be a seperate fee.

Bottom line, if PS Now could give us access to our digital content than Sony should get on that even if its for a fee.

If Sony wanted PS Now on PC, it could probably have over night.

Ultimately, something needs to change with PS Now because it won't be successful at this rate.

I think Sony is doing the right thing personally.  Take their time, dipping their toes in the water, while expanding the library.

As of yesterday, I believe their library is now approximately 372 games, with 127 included in the sub. They are expanding around 5 games a week on the library and 5 games a month on the sub (with usually at least 1 AAA game per month). By this time next year at the current rate they should have around over 630 games on the library and between 187-210 games on the sub. However, as the PS3 gets abandonded further -- you'll see publishers agreeing to put more of their games on the sub.

Game streaming is like digital games. For some fuqing reason people get all bent out of shape and cuss and throw tantrums at the thought of it. Sony needs to ignore this and continue to try to turn people around.
