I have more games not installed on Steam than I have sitting on CDs/DVDs at home.Statistics: Posted by Satis — Tue Sep 07, 2010 4:07 pm

What I'd rather see is the option to do the gaming through a service like onlive, but retain local installs if you desire, and allow transfer of games like a second sale market. Previous experience has proven that allowing resale of items actually increases their worth... people take resale into account when they purchase something, and are thus more likely to spend more on it. You take away that right, you lose that value. I've found myself not very willing to buy games on Steam at full price, partially for this reason. I still find myself willing to pay full price for a box, though.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to more options, but don't want to lose my freedoms at the same time.

The idea is pretty ingenious, especially if you can really rent a game for 3-5 days for less than 10 bucks/neuro/quid, since most AA games are over so quickly that it really isn't worth it buying them.
