>>Just like TV, they make their money from ADs. Very true. However, I'm not convinced that the internet advertising model has yet evolved into a big money maker. And I believe that the jury is still out on whether and how it will. Personally, I would stop visiting Yahoo's site if they charged me $5 a month - as I can get all the information I glean from their site elsewhere. Now, if everyone was charging - then yes, I would pay Yahoo $5 a month - as they do seem to be the best provider of this information. Thanks, -Eric
