In blizzard's hubris they forgot that the only reason they got away with producing content that only 1% would see before is that they were giving the other 99% enough to do.
This time around they stupidly gambled that the other 99% would stick around for purely recycled content, and they were WAY wrong.
So far, that arrogance is now costing them at least 15 million dollars a month.
I'd chock that up as stupid business any way you slice it.

Well, the idea that they caved to the elistists is a matter of fact, it is clear, they even stated in several posts that they didn't want everyone to make it to FL right away, but as with anything they will change this, they will scale back the damage done and the hit points of each boss, then they will add a buff for that raid that will be 10, 15, 20 and 25% and then 30% damage increase, sound familiar (Strength of Wrynn/Hellscream's Warsong). I mean this is nothing new, they make it hard, people grip they lower it. I remember people used to say that both Sunwell Plateau, Naxx and ICC were too hard. This is really really really the same formula with new graphics.

ICC was never really hard, not after the fixed Marrowgar in 10-man.

The number is probably wrong but not far off from the real number. That real number isn't being mentioned because it's still painfully low.
I don't raid either, for the reasons Mithan stated.
I do miss the 15-25 minute 5 mans from WoTLK though. Loved the short wait times and cool dungeons. Those days are gone. WoW peaked with Wotlk, even the zones, artwork and story were WAY better than Cataclysm. How can you top Northrend and the story of Arthas? You can't.....
Next game....
