According to Koster, Raph:

The big three *US* commercial muds.

Apparently, the asian market (Korea mainly) boasts higher numbers, but
their products are almost complete unknowns outside of their original
countries (I'm talking about graphic muds like Dragon Raja, Kingdom of
the Winds, Lineage).

For Lineage, this may change, as NC has opened a subsidiary in the
states (but the game itself looks pre-ultima technology).
