Everyone is talking about console-less gaming or game streaming, but noone is talking about the Internet Service Provider’s business in it.
reat article from Venture Beat – and now we’re also talking mobile gaming. But again no mentioning of the (wireless) carrier business model or value configuration. Over-the-top IP airtime is expensive, and I am starting to wonder while this could be a killer application to boost LTE or WiMAX uptake rates, airtime is still expensive.

what do you mean when you say games on demand?
You're right, the “On Demand” might be misleading. I guess that's my point of the post, that many companies jump onto the band wagon of on-demand, and so do the blogs and citizen journalists. After all, these posts are advertisement funded (amongst other things), and who would read a blog post if its headline doesn't capture your attention? :)
Maybe something like “remote play” or “streaming play” would be more adequate (please no more “cloud gaming”!).
