@Jee – Theoritically, yes but do you think only US residents play the game? Obviously not and that monthly fee might have a bigger gap difference. Is Blizzard getting all that money? Ofcourse not. Think of the hundreds/thousands of servers that they have to keep on maintaining, coders, advertising, their staffs, etc, etc..So net profit? You never know.

The monthly fee is around $12.99-$14.99, so Blizzard is making something like $50-75 million a month from WoW.. BIG MONEY.
