That is the whole point in the end, isn't it? Everything is optional, what matters is what you expect to be part of the package. If the package does no longer suit someone, people should do the only thing they can do and that has any meaning (no threads in forums do not have a meaning), vote with your wallet! I for one think it is an etremyl shady buisness pratice on blizzards end and will take appropriate steps in the future.
