It's quite obvious we see the situation from two different perspectives and there's no sense in arguing about something as silly as internet and games so we should just agree to disagree. Personally I'm tired of everybody having their hand out for a monthly fee. If you don't mind paying fees then that's fine.. I hope you continue to enjoy your stadia experience and in time I hope the service reaches a point where I can enjoy it as well.. if  they ever actually deliver 4k 60fps like promised then perhaps the monthly fee won't bother me ..

It makes about as much sense as going out and buying a bunch of blu-rays and then coming home to watch a movie and having to pay the studio that made it $10 a month to actually get your 4K on your Blu-ray you can defend corporate greed all you want is still Not worth it Even buying a single game on stadia is a giant risk... Buying a library of games on stadia is an investment that is extremely dangerous for the consumer.Especially considering the internet service providers figure out people want to use services likeand just like all the other companies that are super greedy your ISP wants to get its hand in the pocket also in every way possible so they do greedy greedy things like Comcast just did and data capped 14 more states... So imagine you just bought 25 or 30 games this year on stadia and tomorrow you wake up with the data cap and you can't use your stadia anymore...so the scenario is take a huge risk buying your games from us then pay a monthly fee to get full resolution on a game that you pay the same price as everyone else on console paid for and they get their 4k.. these greedy companies need to stop everywhere you look somebody is figured out a way to stick their hand in your pocket and take your money a monthly fee for this and a monthly fee for that and a monthly fee for oxygen before long...I don't know if you remember it or not but there was a time when companies prided themselves on providing a great service for a fair reasonable price... But now it's find a way to provide the cheapest possible service for the highest possible price and add as many fees on top of it as we can get away with greedy greedy greedy

PlayStation plus Xbox live and game pass are optional add-on  services if stadia wanted to charge for online play like PlayStation plus and Xbox live I would have no problem with that... If they wanted to be like gamepass where you pay your fee and get a good selection of games to choose from that wouldn't be a problem either because it's optional..but paying for your game and then getting charged for resolution is just plain wrong because resolution isn't optional in a world where almost every tv purchased in the last 5 years is a 4k tv . Optional services are just fine but down-grading the core experience of a game that is paid for at full price if the user does not want to pay even more is a perfect example of the never ending corporate greed that is destroying the gaming industry.
