I guess it depends on your perspective on it. I don't count my internet connection as part of the cost.. the money that I pay for the game goes towards keeping the servers up and running, new content, and updates to keep the game balanced in case players find exploits.

I've yet to play a free online game that reacted to explots in a timely manner, and that kept the servers up. Of course, since it's free I couldn't complain, but I'd rather pay out the extra money to play when I want. I'm at the point where if a game is free to play online, it makes me want to play it less because I'm now used to having good servers and a controlled community.
