re<<This is why AOL is such a success, not because it is good, but because it is familiar and everyone else uses it too.>>

Good point, although perhaps it is more "fear of the unknown" driven by familiarity on the part of AOL users, whereas the users of the YHOO's, XCIT's, LCOS, etc have no such fears. Still, brand loyalty is (or at least has been in the past--maybe that's changed now too) a powerful thing.

P.S. You're doing a great job in the "refute the naysayer" role. Not sure I agree with all your refutations, but good job nonetheless.
