Applying Nokia's Music Phone Business Model to Gaming

Yes, interesting observation and I couldn't agree more. Apple and Nokia's approach is a very smart one and can definitely be applied to gaming also. Some experiments are already running and not only for small casual games (there are many portals that offer hundreds or even thousands of games playable for a nominal subscription fee) but also for bigger games. The first that comes to my mind is GameTap but I am sure there will be more in a near future, maybe run by the big publishers like EA, Ubisoft or THQ.
