A wow, you get what, between 20 to 60 hours a month of entertainment depending on your play time, for $15. Also given the fact that it is mostly repeating the same content, the same story, the same event.
Game like assassin's creed 2, sleeping dogs, the witcher 2, any mass effect cost $5 each on sale. Depending your completionist level, you get 20 to 60 hours worth of gaming time on one playthrough alone.
So yeah, MMO is more expensive than PC gaming, and almost never goes on sale, but it just might be worth it. When i go shopping for food, cloth, electronics, i don't always just go for the cheapest or the most value, sometimes, i goes with what i like or what i want.
