    If both battle.net accounts are in your name, you can transfer between them after the 30 days; since the B.Net account system, I've done three transfers between my accounts, each from one B.Net account to another.

    The cost for a transfer is the same either way.

    Diablo III: 4x Crusader & 4x Wizard.

    I also can confirm that currently there are only subtle differences as I have both options. My first 2 accounts that I moved to B-Net are on the same B-Net account. My subsequent accounts have all been 1-to-1 (1 wow account to 1 B-Net account).

    Having tried both, I personally prefer the 1-to-1 approach for the following reasons:

    I can rename each B-Net login to fit the roles I am having that account do at a given time. For example, I own my own domain & I like to be able to rename my accounts:
    - Tank@YourDomain.com
    - Healer@yd.com
    - DPS1@yd.com
    - D2@yd.com
    - D3@yd.com

    Or for my 60 twinks (accounts with no expansions):
    - 61@yd.com
    - 62@yd.com
    ...
    -6N@yd.com

    Or for my 70 twinks(accounts with only the BC expansion):
    - 71@yd.com
    - 72@md.com
    ...
    -7N@md.com

    I also don't like logging into WoW via B*net and then having to pick from my old account names as they are kinda cryptic and I don't know how to rename them (could only choose what was available back then rather than make your own).

    I don't view having to log into each B*net account to change options a problem as I rarely do that (mainly to change the email address).

    The current potential main down-side I can see is that if I later choose to use the authenticator and there is a cost per B*Net account. I have never been hacked like my buddy has and I think he had to pay per B*net account to add the authenticator.

    ~~~~~

    The above may change if substantial benefits come from keeping them under 1 B*net account like future BOB vs BOA (Bound-on-B*Net-Account vs Bound-on-Account).
