What's sad is that people actually spend real money on a virtual item for a game that may just disappear/have support dropped in a couple of years. The exception is where an exceptional value discount (Black Friday) is just too good to pass up, on which I just consider it as an entrance fee to pay Nutaku to keep their servers online.
I still prefer games where you pay a set value and receive the complete content for that said value. And at the end of the day, I still can play the game years later (console willing), while not worried about a company going out of business.
