Ok, I'll admit to being wrong here. You did need the subscription for 4k streaming which Gamepass just doesn't offer. I'd still argue Gamepass does this much better since for 15$ a month you get a good variety of games to play, plus the option to run them locally with whatever resolution your hardware can handle. Google tried moving into a market they couldn't compete in. I actually got a free Stadia kit with a 4k Chromecast + Stadia controller. I might of gotten confused since you had to sign up for a pro subscription to get the free kit.

To be fair, a lot of people thought the same as you, even when Stadia closed a lot of news articles mentioned this as being a reason. Google did a horrible job of selling the product, that was one of the main reasons why it failed. Gamepass does seem like a decent product, particularly if you are a big gamer, it's not for me as I don't like subscriptions and I don't play games enough, but it is a decent offering.
