Eight Million Active Accounts

Yeah...that's $120 million a month, or $1.4 billion a year...

...I wonder how much of that Jeff Kaplan and Rob Pardo get to see.

I just can't wrap my mind around those kinds of numbers.

Most of those are in Asia, and don't generate the same cash as North America.

WOW has about 1.5 million North American accounts.

Yeah and I guess not everyone is paying 15 a month. Some opt for the bulk month payment for discount. But still...
