I'd also like to note that this applies to the entire Xbox Live service. They may be relying on users to become the servers, but you are still forced to use the Xbox Live service in order to connect to others. Once that service is gone, you won't be able to play them online anymore.
DVD drives will not read the Xbox ISO format, so there's currently no way this can support Xbox game sales. The only people who will be able to get legitimate games on their PC will be those who already have Xboxes (You can transfer from the Xbox DVD drive to your PC via FTP).
