We might see if the claims about the cost of piracy are true. I'm sure the industry thinks its losing about that much.

The model isn't working because they have too many staff and too much capacity for what is being used.
Doesn't mean it won't work, just that at this moment OnLive entirely overestimated what they could achieve quickly.
Not saying their right or wrong, just that you don't know for sure.

I've used it a handful of times and it's pretty crappy for gaming - high input lag and general laggy gaming. It might be ok for virtual desktops but we're a long long way before this competes with dedicated gaming hardware.

I think the model is good but as said internet connections are still not there.
The fact we can't get decent streaming HD (don't say BBC stream HD because its not a patch on Satelite/Cable BBC HD) means we still have a way to go.
