They were actually questioned about the two-sided position on this subject... but I don't think it was played on DirecTV. They side-stepped the question. It doesn't look like they're willing to look at WoW mods the same way. It seems the biggest thing is the perception that WoW is a persistent world while Startcraft is now... other players in the game with you have to have the same map, so everyone is on equal footing. Conversely, they are taking the position that in WoW mods could give one player a competitive advantage over another player and if that mod is commercial, the other player may be unable to afford to compete on equal ground.
Of course, being a free-market libertarian myself,I say "So what" -- but they don't see it that way.
