Unstated figure. Pachter impressed

OnLive Cloud Console Not a 'Goofy' Company
The OnLive cloud-gaming console that seeks to change the way we all game is not the flash-in-the-pan that many people may have lead you to believe. At least US telecom giant, AT&T doesn't think so.

The OnLive people have managed to get more capital investment from both AT&T Media Holdings and Silicon Valley venture capital firm, Lauder Partners LLC. Now, usually when this kind of thing is publicised, a massive million-dollar figure is attached. Not in this case.

This hasn't stopped Michael Pachter from opining, ""It establishes Onlive as a real player. This is not just some goofy video game delivery company.''

Well that's hardly surprising. After all, to get that video down the wire and into your house, you're going to have to pay someone - like AT&T - for some fat, sweaty bandwidth.

You can see why carriers like AT&T are fighting net neutrality - just think of the revenue begging to be made from tariff hikes to get better (or sufficient, even) bandwidth to play OnLive...
