"Apparently, lots of folks (for some reasons I can't understand) really like the extra content that AOL provides.?"

Lots of great stuff on AOL. Some excellent traders frequent the Shark Attack, although not so many as in days past. A great data base of historic stock prices, and a search bot that delivers press releases to your e-mail box when a keyword is found. Lots and lots of improvements every day.

"I can't imagine using AOL for an ISP."

Neither can I, although I've been told if you minimize AOL and use your own browser it's adequate. I never tried it that way.

BTW, I'm not a shareholder, except through some SPX index fund shares.
