Servers do not run for free. I mean... what do you think? That little fairies magically maintain the servers while the people use them? Ironworks services only a few hundred people at a time, and the bills are bad enough as it is. Battlenet serves millions, so think about it the next time you want to scoff at the idea of helping to pay the bills.

Blizzard has done a remarkable job of keeping BN free at the start, but it was bound to start charging sooner or later.
