So, you buy a new game every four months for $240 per year. One of those games costs $15/month to play, that is just an added cost. I'm still going to buy those other games. I only buy one or two games per year anyway. I also like my games to have replay value. I still play Kotor 1 & 2, and the last one was release at least five years ago, and I'll still be able to go back and play them in 5 years. An MMO doesn't really have that ability because in 5 or more years the players will have found another MMO that captures their interest. Yes I know WoW has been around for a long time, but how many other MMOs have been able to stay as popular? WoW is an exception not the norm.
