Why is the 6 month subscription plan for world of warcraft cheaper than the 1 and 3 month plan?
According to this page.... http://www.wow-europe.com/en/requirements/subscrip...
subscription plans for the UK are cheaper when you sign up for more months...why on earth is this??
Surely the less months you sign up for, the cheaper it is?!

My understanding of it has always been that it acts as a cushion of sorts. If some stellar game comes out that kills WoW, they still have the money from the people who already paid for 6 months.

Its all about good advertising, some people will only want to test the game so will buy 1 months subscription, so the manufacturer will most likely make it abit pricey, but ALOT of gamers will want to buy long term subscriptions so they will make them cheaper as the gamers will see this as better value and it helps draw more gamers in, thus creating greater profits!

because they want more playes eg xbox live 12 mounts is cheaper to 3 mounts but they no that kids will keep paying for 3 mounths

Because if you get the highest plan, you get the better value.
They want you to get the 6 month so you can play longer/keep playing.
