Wait. Who with any value would we lose?

International calls are still charged at extortionate rates. And as far as I know being charged -$6.54 for a call is not possible on the fantastic UK telephone networks.
I don't think you're reading anything I say.

I meant just applying this idea to the current p2p system. Like, five minutes of G2K1 a day, before being kicked off. Sorry if that was unclear to anybody. After all, if more money is needed, why not tempt people rather than force 'em? Human beings resent being made to do things. If you have the choice you're more attracted to something. Example: which would you rather do, climb down a hole or be pushed?
Very bad example (one hurts, the other doesn't), but I get your drift. But they are doing a preview system - just not for P2P stuff. Maybe they could set up some thing so that if you've registered then you can play on the P2P servers with the same restrictions as non-registered people play on the non-P2P servers.
