Actually a low monthly fee could be better for a MMO then freeToPlay.
The reason I say this is the in FreeToPLay models, the developers make money by selling in-game items.
Unfortunately this might mean that the game play is compromised by turning game critical items to stuff that can only be bought.
So in a free to play MMO you might have a group of gamers buying cool stuff and showing them off while another group hang around looking all poor and shoddy.
It just creates that in-game caste sytem that is detrimental to gameplay in the long run.
It is better to die on one's feet
then live on one's knees
