"I know of at least one person who has discontinued @Home and switched to AOL."

I would beg to differ that "at least" one person could be cited for going back to Yugo after driving his new Ferrari for a while. This is inconceivable. I have used AOL (free one-month - hehe) ONLY when I am going to be in multiple cities, and not only was it SLOOOOOOW, it SUUUUUUCKED. I was kicked off more times than you can imagine in that 3 week period. I have had cable access after dial-up, and I would have NEVER gone back to dial-up if I hadn't moved (no choice at new location). Finally after nine months, at least DSL is here. I would have taken cable over DSL, but again had no choice. But I would pay $100 per month for DSL or Cable access over dial-up. And AOL's content...I guess they have to call it something and four letter words are not good marketing :)
