"Rapid Growth and uncontrollable expansion has killed many, many companies in the past", but this hasn't stopped AOL from reaching 112. The growth you suggest is constrained by the nature of the existing distribution system. It will take years to completely upgrade it and during those years there will be straight forward manageable good solid subscriber growth. There is another factor and its called sponsorship. All you have to do is examine who owns the lion share of ATHM stock especially that which is locked up, to realize that ATHM is the aegis of many companies that believe this technology is the future. I wouldn't worry about takeover. It's not in the cards. TCI's and other cable interest's control is like a poison pill provision.
