Why would the broadband subscriber be more valuable then a dial-up subscriber?

BB subs spend more time online. Which means they look at more adds. Which means they buy more products. Which means you can charge more for you adds. Some might also view @HOME as a premium service. Some advertisers may pay more to advertise to premium consumers.

ISPs track time online very closely. I think AOL was very happy their users spend and extra 10min online on average more than this time last year.

The market currently values an @HOME subscriber far more than the AOL sub.
