See, I don't actually think this is a good idea. It's good for Blizzard's bottom line, but as a player, it really doesn't do anything for us. All it's going to lead to is a bunch more WoD's where they spend a year working on it, then release it, and immediately go skeleton crew on it to work on the next one and then repeat. It will also increase the feeling of "everything I'm doing is pointless because new expansion in 8/6/4 months". That feeling is always sort of present in MMO's, but this will exacerbate it.

They say it's because they want to release more content, but there's nothing stopping them from releasing more content in the current expansion. 18 months is absolutely fine for an expansion's lifespan.
