Why is ATHM losing market share and in essence being dumped by T It is considered imperative that you back up the claim with some kind of proof The odd thing is that in a way he is correct. 1) ATHM is indeed losing market share if you define the "market" as non-dial up internet access. When you were once the only person in the market by definition you are losing market share. Now there is DSL, wireless etc coming on line. 2) AT&T can also be interpreted to be "in essense dumping" @home. After all- they have clearly stated that @home will no longer be exclusive. The fact that anyone with half a brain knew that two years ago is irrelevant since most of the market has a lot less than half a brain. AT&T has also IMO gone out of thier way many times to punish ATHM reputation and stock price. Why? I have no clue there... Don't scare away the fish- he's the only one on SI willing to tell us what the market is thinking. Eric
