Sorry, for the misunderstanding folks... But, back to AOL.

I personally know 2 people who were regular users of AOL for years, paying about $200/month for the paid services. Since the recent blitz of unlimited service, they haven't been able to get on to use the pay-as-you-go services. I think this kind of scenario will impact AOL's bottom line more than lawsuits and the like. Revenues go down, stock goes down.

However, I know personally know 5 people who are short or buying puts in AOL. This basically represents a "promise-to-buy" or an "obligation-to-buy" AOL stock. This could support the stock for a long time. I'm too scared to invest in this puppy. Could go either way.
