History is revised yet again!

Read this news item about AOL:

biz.yahoo.com

Note the paragraph which states:

<<Historically, many Internet service providers, including the major phone companies, have been happy to go along with AOL's industry
pace-setting rate of $19.95 per month.>>

Am I missing something here? Wasn't it AOL who followed the lead of the smaller ISPs when they (finally) offered unlimited usage for $19.95 a month - resulting in the infamous "busy signal" fiasco?
