For some time I've pondered the next paradigm in gaming. Specifically if the current developer -> publisher -> customer chain will still be relevant (no). Of course it depends on the severity of the change, but the word paradigm does imply major-ass change and we do seem to be on the cusp of something.
Then this shows up. Crazy technical hurdles notwithstanding, I will consider this a strong contender for next paradigm in video games. Streaming games as video would make game development inherently single platform, which is a bit of a dream scenario from a production standpoint. Brick-and-mortars can be tossed into the nearest volcano. Customers become hardware independent. Poverty is eliminated and we each get our own unicorn.
