Would you say that since they are going faster they see each individual ad for less time.

No.

So if AOL were on broadband, the broadband customers would be valued higher then the dial-up customers.

Yes.

I guess you are saying that the faster the download of the content the more valuable the customer for advertising and e-commerce.

No. I am saying that BB subscribers spend more time online. I have not stated any reason why they spend more time online. It could be because of download speed. It could be they are a losers and have no lives. To answer your original question: Why would the broadband subscriber be more valuable then a dial-up subscriber? it doesn't matter why they spend more time online, you just have to know that they do. And that makes them more valuable.

How can a user that spends more time online not be more valuable than others?

Jay
