NO NEED TO CHANGE FILTER YEARLY FOR MOST USERS
This filter is rated at 750 gallons capacity. If the consumer uses one gallon of water per day in the form of water from the refrigerator dispenser and ice from the ice dispenser the filter will last 750 days; i.e. just over TWO years. In general there is no reason to replace the filter yearly unless you have a really yuccky water source.
In a small household of two adults the filter should last considerably longer than two years. Furthermore with the addition of a filtered water dispenser at the sink (such as a GE undercounter unit) the refrigerator filter would be functional for a few years. The undercounter units have a quite large capacity and some use two filter cartridges.

Simple maintenance for your fridge
You gotta hand it to Maytag - they made replacing the water filter very simple. Took all of about 30 seconds from start to finish. And about 20 seconds of that was wiping up the water that dripped out of the old filter when I pulled it out so the next change should go even better ;-)
We have a family of six and we drink water almost exclusively so I went ahead and changed the filter at six months just like the owner's guide recommended. However I could see no evidence that the filter was near its end of life and am convinced that I can get more use out of the filters than the suggested six months. I will try to keep an eye on things but without a little window I really have no way other than flow to know what is going on.
And that is why I gave this a rating of four stars. The filter seems to work wonderfully and replacement is a breeze but I would be happier if I could look at the state of the filter while it is in use.
