Everquest has been out for quite some time, so WoW isn't the first to do that. WoW is moving to a lot of offline content right now, with the launch of the CCG game (which allows you to get some in-game stuff with special cards).
The problem with these big licenses is that very often they suffer the fate of many RPGs; they get played for a little while and then sold on. In the local half-price bookstore I go to, there's usually a lot of RPGs there. Last week I counted about 10-12 licensed core products, including A Game of Thrones and Wheel of Time.
