It's true, and as of now, Minecraft has accumulated around $33 million dollars. Over 800,000 alpha version users contributed by picking this game up which cost $14.26 (€9.95). Also, over a million beta version sales were made at $21.43 (€14.95) a piece. According to the Minecraft stats page, 1,813,527 customers are adding to the revenue, which is now estimated to be slightly over $33 million (€23 million). The numbers come from the creator of minecraft himself, Markus Persson or 'Notch.'

Then when Notch gets bored of developing Minecraft he is going to have millions of people demanding a refund.
