I don't know. I remember AOL whining about having access to the pipes though and after the merger they were more of the mind that they should have it by themselves and not share. LOL! I never understood why they really wanted it though if they were looking for "eyeballs" since the home page is whatever you set it to be and the isp is easily bypassed. We haven't been to Excite in a couple years and we have At Home (don't use the email either). Yahoo sent me an email once asking to be part of a focus group to discuss auctions. A couple weeks after that they started their big auction push. So.... sometimes I think those surveys might have some meaning. Yahoo has a lot in cash, but if they don't get some method to make more money they might have to get bought out. I'd pay for a music service if it were as good as napster was. Other than that, not sure I'd pay for anything that yahoo has. TA
