Paul,

Careful afore you dis that WebTV! It too is a GMST licensee(although AFAIK they pay a little less than AOL, Stew?).

I have heard that the AOL TV agreement was negotiated with terms that Henry prefers going forward with a monthly subscription fee as opposed the one time unit fees with Microsoft. A healthy take of the IPG advertising and commerce revs is still maintained. Although the exact monthly fee has not been disclosed Henry said it was greater that $5 and less than $10 on an annual basis. I am not certain as to the average life of the STB but I would guess it to be at least 3 years.

Regards
Stew
