I'm aware of how renting works and as I've pointed out in both comments you've quoted, people could just purchase them for cheaper  than renting them for the outrageous prices they're asking. 

When renting movies off of the PSN or TV episodes.  There's also the option to purchase them.  It's more than a retail copy of that same movie but still.  So why doesn't Sony add a purchase model for PSN Now?

Too expensive for me and most I would assume. I can get most games forever for less than 30$ a few months after being released.

Gross...I don't know, I think renting a game for a week for $8 is not unreasonable, especially if they build out the system to support all tablets and smart tvs.

Who for the love of wants to play games with LAG???

They could be free for eternity that I wouldn't thouch this with a Power Gloved ten foot pole!!! I mean, even for a turnbased RPG I would find unbearable having input lag, for action games it's plain hell!!!
Pay for input LAG, downgraded graphics & screen tearing??? Have gamers gone mad???

The issues here should be (in no particular order): Always connected console, no internet=no game, you don't own the game & have the use of it for a limited time, input LAG, downgraded graphics, screen tearing, connections hick-ups, ultra long loading time, did I mention input LAG???

I mean, if any game company tried to pull something near that kind of hideous specs on a retail game disc, everyone would (rightly) howl & foam of rage, $30 for input lag, downgraded graphics, stream issues & atrocious loading times... gamers better get smart, after being sold beta consoles, beta games, now this poop!!!

THIS. Or at least some sort of a basket purchase plan that gives you some flexible picks. "Pick 7 games, swap one once a week. Monthly price: $30" would have me sold in a heartbeat. Accessing one game for $15 a month, though, is kinda nuts. XIII-2's going price is $18.

Because the whole thing is an unfinished Beta at the moment?

4 hours for 5 dollars? Seems perfect for JRPG's.

Those games are paid for, in the case of indies that are new. everything else are usually games that are at least 1yr plus old and then some. And even those are paid for too. If you want fairly new games, then this is the ebst way to do it. Unless you are ready to pay much higher subscription fees.

But don't fret, its still in beta now anyways, theer is no telling that they couldn't make it a subscription service later.

Yeah, they need to fix that.

PS Now is going to fail hard unless Sony comes up with better prices.

Either that, or at least let us stream games we already own. I have tons of games I bought digitally that I would love to stream on my PS4.
