Believe it or not, a lot of people still subscribe to UO.
I have made the occasional visit back to Brittania (during a boring month here or there).
I'm sure the numbers have lessened over the course of these years, but assuredly, UO is still strong.
I'm figuring that WOW will be stealing a large number of players as most people who stick with UO are doing so for the play system which includes a myriad of trade skills and lacks the experience point based level system prominent in so many other MMORPGs.

Ultima Online was also the original MMO, thus many stick with it for nostalgia's sake.

Though UO these days is a far cry from the original Ultima of old, many still play it because it resembles the originals.
