Hey guys,
Just came up with an idea that someone should dump Playstation Now and run it on RPCS3 to stream all Ps3 games while emulator is developing.
Is this even possible? As I know RPCS3 supports network connection so why not use it?

RPCS3 is a PS3 emulator and debugger, not a video decoding/processing/streaming application.

Does that mean that developers of RPCS3 aren't interested in this wonderful feature which can bring houndreads of PS3 games on PC for free?(7 days Trial)

Once, again RPCS3 is a PS3 emulator and debugger not a stream decoder/encoder/etc. The main goal is preservation of the original hardware (and thus software).
I'm not also sure why you'd want that. Simply plug a damn PlayStation TV into the monitor.
Though it may be an interesting pet project to get it working on PC, if someone wants to.

It's just software, which is available on many different devices including non-Sony ones such as Samsung TVs, so I don't think that they care about hardware sales.
It's also available on PS3, so the PS3 app should at least be covered by RPCS3.
