World of Warcraft Breaks Sales Records

Blizzard's latest game, World of Warcraft, sold 250,000 units in the first day breaking sales records for a PC game, online or offline. The company announced over 200,000 registrations and already 100,000 people are playing at the same time. If this keeps up with massive sales and great reviews, Blizzard is set to have a gold mine with their $14.99 a month fee. Just do the math, say 300,000 sold in a few months X $15 a month X 12 months = $54 million in annual revenue.
