Dial-up strategy: Real world needs. Most homes have multiple tv's so that one can view their favorite shows conveniently from different locations. Contrary to this, most homes have or will have multiple internet access devices along with multiple ISP accounts, not for the multi-location convenience but for the multi-user convenience. eg 15 yo incessantly chatting on AOL community and using their user friendly email, 9 yo visiting game sites, spouse buying and selling on ebay, and myself posting on SI etc. I will use Roadrunner/TimeWarner for high speed cable access(local), and maintain AOL for the kids. Ultimately, the convenience of one company/one bill with all needs met competitively is most appealing. ATHM is positioned to do this if they pursue dial-up.
