Default Is World of Warcraft worth it?

I've been debating playing WoW and I was wondering if the monthly fee is worth it. I don't have alot of time to play games so is it still worth it if I can only play about 10 hrs. a week. I've heard it is very worth it but is it still worth it if you don't have all day to play it?

Well i tried the trial and love it so Ill have to say if you can just devote one hour a day then tecnically you are only spending about 50 cents an hour to play with I think isn't bad at all. SO in conclusion heck ya its worth it.

I see people at my school who play WoW, they are completly obsessed. All they talk about is that game and there levels and stuff. I think its a waste of time and money (as skidude said).

Its worth it for the money, but for everyone who says go for it, you just got beat right here. Heck I even own the game myself and I really dont move much. It really does consume your life and soul, so just watch it. I didnt

The morale of the story- Get MMO's if you dont have a job or dont go to school.... cuz then you can just sit at home all day and dont do anything.
