I haven't seen Blodget's comments, but I don't think AOL will lose share overall. Subscriber growth has to "slow" based on the principle of large numbers, and there will always be some competitive issue. However, commerce revenue is just kicking in and that's AOL's primary growth story now. AOL has it's higest subscription rate ever and its lowest churn ever, so people don't care that they can get Internet service 33% cheaper. As far as the free service, there's never a free lunch.
