Methinks they just don't want to pay any more actors.
I don't think it's just about paying more actors, I think it is about keeping the storyline more manageable. With the books you can just create the tomes that GRRM has done for us as the stories become ever more complicated and intertwined and more characters are revealed. On the show, you can only cram so much into that hour block and the number of episodes ordered. Already there are a lot of details left out in the translation from page to screen, can you imagine what would have to be left out if they included all of the characters from the books?
