I've said on the official CO forums before that I'd MUCH rather buy PARTS of an expansion rather than the full thing. I'd probably never by costume pieces from an expansion but I would buy "end game content". A role player that doesn't play very often might buy a costume pack but not a new zone because he's not finished with what he has. Hopefully they break their expansions into MT and release them when they're ready, not all at once to justify a $40 dollar investment.
honestly, people are blind to their own misconceptions. How many people (11 million) bought two expansions for World of Warcraft? They could have broken them into parts (draeni, blood elf, classes on each side, Outland, northrend) and charged less and given it out as MT. I never would have bought alliance shit, would you? They're still paying $15 a month and buying expansions every year...but a micro transaction is double dipping and price gouging? Hah.
