As if the oceans of money WoW is brining in can't sustain your company BY ITSELF. It just reeks of greed. Because they know their fans will lovingly bend over for them.
It reeks of a successful business plan. Sorry, but blizzard isn't in this so geeks can have a good time. They make games for money. To make money, they make geeks happy so that said geeks keep buying their games.

Multiplayer will have all the races. The single player will have one full campaign. They will be releasing expansions for the other factions. What's better?

1 game- 1 campaign involving all the races that lasts ~5hours per race. Without much follow up like what happened with the original star craft.
or
3 games- spread out of 3 campaigns, each 20+ hours long. 60+ hours of gameplay over 2-3 years.

I rather like the idea of blizzard commiting to SC for 3 games. I liked SC and am glad they are going to be pumping out new campaigns for it. I like it much more than them releasing just one game and then that's all we get.
