Gametap Goes Live

Turner Broadcasting System launched the Gametap games-on-demand service today for $14.95 a month. It's a valiant attempt, but it's going to fail in its current iteration because the game list they have is too weak. No-one is going to spend $14.95 a month to play budget PC games, Genesis, Atari 2600, and old arcade games. If they can get some publishers to release their new titles, it would be interesting; till then it's going to flop.
