I think the numbers are off a bit-

AOl is hitting all growth and profit targets now with clunky old dial-up and the street seems to be pleased.
AOL makes money on each customer 3 ways: Subscriptions,advertising and e-commerce.
Annually.. AOL makes $20.00 per subscriber. 20 million subscribers X $20.00 each = $400 million a year.


actually it is $22 per subscriber per month not per year. So 20 million subs x $22/each x 12 months= $4.8 billion a year or $240/yr/sub

Last quarter AOL made $350 million in advertising/ecommerce on 20 million customers who were on AOL about an hour a day. Annually..$350million X 4 quarters = $1.4 billion a year divided by 20 million subscribers = $70.00 a year per subscriber.
So AOL subscribers throw off revenue of $90.00 a year each by staying on AOL about an hour a day.


this would be $310/sub/yr.

same would go for the numbers used to assess ATHM.
