Cloud gaming is a meme though, they've tried this for a while now and it hasn't caught on. Remember OnLive? Or that one Sony bought a while back? Or the original Xbox One marketing? Or stadia? Hell, take steam machines, that couldn't even manage to stream from your own PC without latency problems ).
Now subscription models like Game Pass might stay for a while, but I think they'd eventually face the same issues movie streaming faces now : more subscription services means less options per service, less interest and consequently less subscriptions.
I play Geforce Now all the time. Sure, it's not meant for pro-gamers (TM) with 0 input lag, but I love that I can play georgeous intensive games without an expensive gaming rig.
I got a Shield TV to replace my dying chromecast and I haven't been disappointed. It's pretty good for faffing about in 90's JRPG's, or DISCO ElySIUM GAME OF THE DECADE!
Obviously I'm not going to be able to play 240 FPS competitive Battlefield: Call of NATO 7 or whatever the fuck rooty tooty shooty comes out every six weeks. But who gives a shit about those games?
i think there is a difference in that you can only sink so much time into any particular show, unless one of the weirdos who watches office 30 times. you can however play the same games continuously with no inherent time limit and the game company can sell you the subscription as long as youre interested in that game.

I had zero confidence in Stadia.
Nobody did, all it took was one input lag comparison video for me and I was like "nah i'm never using this shit"
same
It’s so weak, you feel alone (you have no confidence in this service)
