I really don't see how this will happen, at least not in the current way MMORPGs work. If Blizzard made D3 into a classic MMORPG, they will be competing against themselves.
On the other hand, if Blizzard is taking a cue from Guild Wars and is planning to make Diablo 3 a MMORPG playable with no monthly fee on Battle.net I can see this happening. I think this would a huge hit, and wouldn't necessarly impact on their WoW subscriptions.
I guess what I am saying is that if Diablo 3 goes pay-for-play without even a hint of a singleplayer mode, I'll be mightily pissed off.
