The sharpshooters at America Online have once again taken dead
aim at their own Nikes. Their latest fiasco is a plan to begin charging an extra $1.99 an hour for certain multiple-player games

BTW

All six of AOL's WorldPlay pay games have free internet
counterparts:

Backgammon usmirror.com
Bridge passport2.com
Cribbage geocities.com
Gin geocities.com
Hearts maul.oit.unc.edu
Spades members.aol.com

Not to mention that card games are hardly the draw (so to speak)as
stuff such as MSFT's FREE: X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter; Golf 3.0; Hasbro
Interactive's Scrabble; and the for pay Fighter Ace and Asherons Call.
