No, this is exactly what the game publishers want. OnLive is their holy grail. They want consumers to still pay full retail price upfront for a game especially for new releases. To them doing otherwise is leaving money on the table. And with services like OnLive, the publishers get to keep control after the sale over how long the game can be played so they can pull the plug on a game and force customers to pay for a sequel to keep playing. And, there are plenty of other benefits with this service for the publishers too. They are able to eliminate costs and losses from product returns, used game sales, piracy, separate game development for multiple platforms, and console certification and licensing.
Because that monthly fee to on-live goes entirely to on-live No, you can be sure it doesn't. OnLive can't run and deliver the games without a license from the content providers (publishers), and that license is not going to be free. The standard EULA for retail games doesn't cover this, and OnLive is not simply a reseller of these games.
