I haven't read all of your replies in detail but here is what I have to say.

Yes, I think that paying doesn't neccissarily "entitle" you to any physical or digital product. However, I do think it certainly "entitles" you to good service. It is quite evident that mobage/dena have failed at this on multiple accounts. For instance, they should have a backup of user data, at least when you pay for something or get a reward.

As for the importance of paying players, I think it is much more of a personal choice. Either way, the top bosses and rewards go to someone. If people are willing to pay to get ahead, then that is the cost they pay. However, since those places are filled regardless, it would also work if everyone played for free. The benefit of paying is to get an advantage over free players. The only reason free players don't rank high or get high bosses is because others pay for that advantage.

As for supporting the game without paying players, ad space? Perhaps Hasbro and Mobage/Dena could use it to advertise other products.
