They're one of the very few companies that even could afford to do that, and they didn't have to. I think people who invested into Stadia lucked out that it was Google and not some other company.

I would be reluctant to sign up for a similar clone service unless you also get a key to another store.

We didn't luck out it was Google, if it had been a small startup I wouldn't have trusted buying any games for it, neither would many others.
