Subs are Barriers. MTs are a risk-free gateway drug.
Subscriptions are nice, but given how many other MMOs are out there, a subscription could be seen as a barrier to entry for new players. People will easily pay a sub fee for big names like SWTOR without hesitation, but for a "no-name" brand like WiS or DUST, a sub fee is too much of a commitment for an unknown.
I subscribed to a no name MMO called EVE based on the free 15 day trial.
If CCP are planing on moving to MT payment model for EVE that's fine, It's their game they can do what they want with it. But they will do it without me as a customer.

"Thus we will not and cannot focus on virtual sales only within the Incarna evironment, nor build that environment around such sales, rather we will effect a universal strategy of micro-sales throughout the EVE experience."

For some reason I get the impression this is how CCP feels about me.

CCP,
I will be frank with you.
"Are you moving beyond VANITY AUR items?"
The only way I will be reactivating my subscriptions is if the answer to this question is "NO"
I think most of us know that the reason you have not answered, is that the answer is yes. Right now you are trying to figure out a way to tell us that this is happening without losing customers. I will make it easy for you. You can't.
I wish you much luck in your future endeavors. No hard feelings, it is just a game and I have truly enjoyed it.
I sincerely hope I am wrong.

Isn't this the expansion that should have been called Exodus?
