Guess I wasn't thinking about their Japanese Licensee. 2 Mil.
Curious, do they breakout revenue from them? Personally don't think
70& percent will hold up, but time will tell.
If Disney comes online and cheap, I sure some families will try it,
however I believe they will also stay on their other service. My
Grandkids love Disney, but at 5 one is already outgrowing hisattachment.Interesting this year Disney now offered free with basic,
maybe not enough people paying for it.
Back to AOL:
AOL is bending over backwards to inform about the new pricing.
Everytime you log on a message is posted about it.
IMO the people complaining are good canidates for the new Disney
online service, Just another chance for lawyers to make some money.

Deliberate strategy. Right.

That's why they have recently announced an emergency advertising
campaign to stanch losses. That's why president jumped ship. Or
maybe he didn't want to move his children to the $2,000,000 house
he had just purchased (prevarication so transparent no one was
FOOLed).

Old growth will not be repeated. Windows 95 now makes Internet
connection as simple as AOL was. Cserve products are more
prominently displayed on '95. The Internet is happening. Aol not!

A market wizzard, not, but I've done all right paying attention to
what people around me use and like. Maybe just lucky, but I think
this is the right time to be back in.

Thanks for the info
