Don't underestimate the difference in scale between Google's network and whatever powers the other streaming services...

I'm bearish on streaming games as well, but if there's one company that has the potential and know-how to solve the hard problems, it's Google.

I'm sure Google has the edge in terms of technical know-how but launching a successful game streaming service is about so much more than getting pixels on a screen fast.

I think Stadia has come about 20 years too early. Cloud gaming makes sense, but the infrastructure isn't there yet.
