IMO its pretty much used to transfer your chars to a less populated server, or to use a realm that a friend might be on. Makes it more fun without having the hassle to start a new character on the different realm.
IIRC the Everquest character transfer cost money, but I'm not sure about the WoW one.

for now, if you take one of their planned transfers, no. it doesn't cost a penny.
Later on there was the plan to open the Open Transfering Service and that is prolly gonna cost a nominal fee for treansferring characters.
