Let's see. For 2.6m subs AOL pays $200m plus whatever its business services unit is worth, plus `other consideration'. That's less than $130 per sub. If that's the value AOL places on one, why should AOL's market cap be more than $900 per sub? Sure a premium is warranted. But seven times????

And, BTW, it appears to say that AOL has been spending MORE than $130
in marketing for each net new sub.
