We’ve been down the streaming road before. No, OnLive’s early attempts are not what most would consider modern streaming. As folks have “pulled the plug” and moved on to ubiquitous streaming platforms, the mere mention of digital media has a softer touch.
You also have more monolithic, too-big-to-immediately fail entities entering the game, like Sony with its PlayStation Now service and Microsoft with Project xCloud; and now, Google with Stadia. Although Stadia is still really early (so early that several of its features aren’t ready for the November Pro launch), it’s one of the most promising experiments so far in this rollercoaster of a ride.
