So, Blizzard hooks up with DirecTV to snatch up new WoW players…

From the Blizzard website:

“We’ve partnered with DIRECTV to offer a great value to World of Warcraft players and new DIRECTV customers. Between now and November 30, 2007, players who sign up for DIRECTV will receive 11 months of World of Warcraft FREE! New DIRECTV customers who aren’t already World of Warcraft subscribers will also receive a free copy of the World of Warcraft game client.”

So, people will get eleven months of World of Warcraft just for signing up for satellite service with nothing but 2,324 channels dedicated to non-stop sports coverage? Good luck.
