Millions of young people are hooked on AOL's chat rooms. Their friends and buddies are there and the web of friends just keeps increasing. To these young people, the AOL content is far more valuable than anything else on the net. Most of these pre-teens and teens would give up almost anything but their AOL. The $21.95 per month is an inconsequential fee for the enjoyment they get from the service. These chatrooms with their buddy lists have locked them in. It makes the price and content of other providers virtually irrelevant and meaningless. This is one reason why after several years, MSFT, with all its financial resources, has been unable to catch up.
