And some game company will deliver this service for free and after that I wonder if anyone else can try to make money on it...
I honestly don't think I'm qualified to really give a decent answer, but it is as you said something that is going to happen. Maybe it will play out how the music industry adapted to and fought digital distribution, ie decades of incredibly messy battles to retain power over IP.
