I don't know anyone who would switch to MSN because it's free. Some of these high school girls have 50 to 60 friends on their buddy lists. Some much more. Do you think they're going to go through the trouble of telling their parents to switch to MSN? They are all having so much fun chatting with all their friends online, they don't have time to talk to their parents. The 17.6 million members are staying. This number will just get bigger. It's called word of mouth. These kids go the school in Sept. First words out of their mouths, "What's your AOL member name, so I could put you on my buddy list." It's automatic. They're staying, AOL's growing. Acquisitions are coming. Stay here.

Our local COSTCO did have the $11.99/month offer for MSN, but it was for 3 months ($35.97) according to the in store ad.

Chung,

What car do you drive?
Would you drive a Yugo? It's cheap, you know?
Would you buy a Toyota? Buick? Mercedes?
There are many considerations that go into purchasing an item, not
just cost.
