I believe you are getting the wrong ideal.  Why would you download 4 games and try them for 15 mins.  Why not just download one game and play it enough to decide if you like it.  I only download one game, play it and if I like it I continue to play it until I am done, then I go to another game.  15 mins usually isn't enough to really tell anything as some games can be slow starters.

If you are going to go the short try method then why even download the game just stream it which takes seconds to get up and running and then if you like it you can download it and play.  I know I have done this a few times with some games because I was not sure about the gameplay.  

You can ignore the 4 at a time, that wasn't the point. The point was that I don't download to try a game, I look for trailer and info on the game and if it seems something I'll like I pick it up, if I'm uncertain I won't and likely wouldn't do it even if was free. My son though would certainly love because he swap games like crazy.

Well services are not for everyone.  I like to explore new games and gameplay and get outside of my comfort zone.  GP delivers to me on that front.  If I am uncertain, then I can easily steam the game and see if I like it before downloading.  This allows me to experience all types of different games but then again this is how I use Netflix as well.  Pretty easy to explore stuff I normally would not go to the movies and pay for and I have been reward more than disappointed.  Its the reason I continue to sub to GP.  I would take the same approach to PS new service as well once it comes out and I can see what it offers but for right now, I am content with just PS Plus.
