Good point lethality, and so I would like to add that I'm thinking there are going to be so many pretty darn good MMO's out there in the future.

In order for companies to keep making more MMO's they might need to all give us the opportunity to choose when to pay up with MT's and that way everyone can stay in business.

MMO's can not work on the assumption for much longer that they will be able to pull people from other games any more and no matter how good TOR will be people will still be inching to leave after a while to play some of the other great MMO's coming along.

It's like a kid in a candy shop, you can't expect them to want only one type of candy, enough but no all, but enough people need variety.

MMO's are like friends not so much partners in life or a Girl/Boyfriend were you should stay loyal to one.

Also I don't think MMO's are not worth staying with just one, I think they are pretty good but the other MMO's are good too.

MMO's are and will be engaging enough to stay with them but some people will want to stay with more then one or switch around and MT's give them the ability to keep all the MMO's running.

WoW is mostly got 2 1/2 million players from the N. America because of advertisement anyways.

We need a way to keep an MMO's temporarily low on pop to keep the money coming in. So people in MMO's like TR will not loose their game and big games like WoW will not have to fire staff even if only the player pop is lower one year.
