stephen, The Bloomberg piece you posted states that AOL in the next five years plans to double its subscribers from the current 17 million. If we assume for the sake of discussion that this number is true, it means AOL will have a compounded annual 5-year subscriber growth rate of slightly under 15%, a dramatic drop in growth! I do not believe this number for a minute, but if one were to believe it, one would have to be very bearish on the stock. Best, --Steve
