When will Google shut down Stadia?
I understand the cynicism of this community to Stadia but implore you all to think a little broader.<p>Stadia is different, with this product Google is trying something really innovative. For one, the fact that Stadia actually costs money should be a signal of Google's long term ambition here. Yes, Fiber also cost money but was bogged down by the hell that is infrastructure development.<p>Stadia will require a substantial engineering effort from Google to make this work. The latency and network requirements are a great test to gauge network requirements as we move into 5g, AR, and self driving cars.<p>Gaming is huge and if Google can be the first to provide (viable) steaming as a service they can really threaten some of the incumbents like Twitch, Sony, Microsoft, etc.<p>Obviously Google doesn't have the best track record here but I'm excited to see them tackle this challenge.
