So you're basically saying PC gamers suck it up and pay for online why don't console gamers do the same?

No. I'm saying paying for online isn't seen as evil if Blizzard does it, but for if MS does it people act like stealing money from orphans. I'm also asking if all online fees are fundimentaly wrong or just the ones fans don't have the cash for?

I'm sorry but that's a terrible example. That's just one game. And many of us here don't play wow because of that. I've only played Guild Wars and also bought Guild Wars 2 a few months ago. It's not like I can play wow free on mac and with a subscription on pc. 

Both people who disapprove of having to pay for live to play online and those who argue that the amount is insignificant for them and well worth the price have a fair point. Now, if Sony had a similar policy, say locking dlc unless you have psn+ (which would still affect less people), then sure you'd have every right to call them out as hypocrites.
