I am glad AOL is finally getting caught at cheating on the number of subscribers they have. Several months ago my I helped my brother-in-law plug in to the internet. I set up one of those trial versions of AOL for him. Several months later I asked him if he was still using AOL and he said that every month he calls in to cancel his service but they extend the service another month for free! That is how they keep their subscriber list high - by extending the trial memberships month after month!
