    As a Life-Time member - I am not too excited about this - I don't need to buy the game again - but a way to get the "Perks" would be a nice Member reward!

    I live in my own little world - I like it there - everyone knows me.

    Very nice move by Turbine getting Warner Bros to get the game on store shelves.   This was the company that pretty much decided who won the Blu-ray vs HD-DvD battle.

    So I take this is the first paid expansion for Lord of the Rings online?   Silly me, I thought it was another free expansion.
