kg,

many of ur points are valid....but there is a potential that 5B in revenue could be gone suddenly(ie-monthly charges)...u cant make this up with advertising or anything else, its too much money...what they are doing right now doesnt concern me cause that has been factored into the price many months ago, i have to go by what the future looks like instead...i personally use aol right now but if some other isp provider were to offer me free service, i would leave, especially if the im boxes turn universal...if i would leave, im sure others would too...but if aol does offer broadband(they have dropped the ball bigtime so far IMO) service, they could receive a fee for this service so some of the potential losses could be recovered....but we'll have to wait and see.
