I don't think hard drive space is an issue; they are dirt cheap nowadays. It's more a case of convenience I think; that is being able to play the same game on multiple platforms. Casual gamers will probably go for it but if you are into serious gaming you would buy retail or from Steam.
Refering back to earlier post, onlive would be great for my nephew and his single parent. They have a 5 year old PC, no consoles, a low paid job, high mortgage and so a new PC is out of the question. If you can rent high end games and play them on a 5 year old PC then that would be great for them.
I see both sides of the argument; not everyone can afford Xboxes and gaming PC's but for those that can I can't see onlive being a first choice.
