Yes, you’re effectively renting a powerful computer.

Previously, you could just use it without limits, and the math worked out for everyone. It’s something like 3-6 years of service to cover the cost of a decent-to-great computer.

Now, if you’re a hardcore gamer and go over 100 hours a month, that value changes, and the break-even point is sooner. If you play for 40 hours a week, that time is effectively halved.

At the current rates, it continues to seem like a really good value, so long as you aren’t bothered by the slight input lag or the video compression.

But if more people use the service for more time, they’re going to have to charge more money. Either higher base rates, or lower limits. And it’s eventually going to show that it doesn’t really make sense for anyone except as a temporary measure, and then the service will disappear because it didn’t work well enough.
