Heroes of Newerth (based on the custom warcraft 3 map, DotA, steep learning curve, dark theme, closed beta *practically open*.)
League of Legends (based on the custom warcraft 3 map, DotA, easy learning curve, light theme, released.)
Warcraft 3 (the first online RTS game I've played, I recommend it merely for the custom maps it offers made by players, truly fun games out there made running on its engine.)
Starcraft 2 (In beta, looks promising. Basically Warcraft 3 but with a better engine and sci-fi themed.)
Personally I'm playing Heroes of Newerth and waiting on Starcraft 2. Heroes of Newerth also offers a mapmaking system similar to warcraft 3, but on a vastly improved engine.
Those aren't actual MMORTS games though, are they? There's very few of them around and none of theme are exactly popular. I think that might be a genre that will get couple of bigger titles in the future. I haven't tried any, but Shattered Galaxy gets mentioned usually when this type of thread comes up, as well as Battleforge.

Waiting on Xsyon & betaing stuff
No HoN and LoL are not MMORTS's anymore than Counterstrike is a MMOFPS. Currently as far as I know there arent any AAA mainstream MMORTS games.
Last one I knew of was 10 six (if I recall the name correctly.
You might try Beyond Protocol or Dreamlords.
Thanks for the responses.
