PlayStation Now turned my awful Samsung Smart TV into a fun gaming system

That's also what I expect it to evolve too, getting support for lots of companies and getting bigger and turning into a very solid gaming service for renting, but if it start taking PS4 games it could hurt the system sales depending on how popular it gets, but I dunno, they could try to reach even MS and Ninty, it could be good for everyone and I don't see no other company trying this approach soon, it would be great to any casual player or to parties, holidays seasons gamers, vacation time gamers, it's just turn the TV on, access it, have a controller (specially the DS4) and rent whatever you want and start playing right away without caring to anything other than your internet, and the requirement for it to run good is really low to most of people in developed countries and soon able to reach people everywhere.

I just wish people stop thinking it has anything with PS4 BC, it's a service on it's own and aimed to a whole lot of platforms, the PS4 is just one of them, it's a renting service pretty much like we have with movies, but for games. 

Sony can have something really big on their hands, hope they manage it well.

There's no doubt that PSNow will eventually get PS4 games. If I had to put a timeline on it I'd say it will receive PS4 games that are 3 years old. There's no way Sony would put brand new games on there for the reason you've stated, but older games with advertising for newer games could actually HELP sell the PS4 to new consumers.
