economy is crap right now and servers cost less to buy and are easier to maintain so why not make it $5 a month just for those reasons.
Anyway the SOLE reason I did not and will not buy it is because of the price. I can't afford $15 a month on nonsense but even if I could, after 7 years that's way too much

50-100 Devs' for 35.000-45.000 a year each.
20~ Game masters for.. hmm. 35.000 (?) a year each.
20~ people for phone/mail support and accounting/billing for also 35.000 a year each.

Each of these people would cost the company $100,000 (or more) when you include all costs (wages, benefits, office space, management, etc.)

yupp, youre right, just wanted to show how much money the people do earn by working for DC Online, of course they are much more expensive to the company itself.
@everyone: never ever compare ANY MMO to World of Warcraft. because you'll never ever see any Game (with monthly fee) again that has that ammount of subscribers. (How many do they have? i think they had 12 million a month ago?)
