The dynamic app search , which lets you runs apps on the cloud without needing to install them is an interesting feature. I heard about something similar for android which runs apps in the cloud , anybody knows how it's called?

Yes. It was priced at 10 million per hour. For movies 20 million per hour is considered a good price. And I think house of cards is relatively expensive. Even game of thrones cost 6 million per hour. How is this possible? I have no idea
