Oh, you're not serious are you? I sure hope not. I hope they don't sell!

Has anyone heard or read any fallout about the price increase? A while back, someone had posted an "online poll" of whether users would switch. Not very scientific or accurate but interesting none the less. Does AOL regularly post its subscriber statistics (like same store sales etc) along with all of the meaningless drivel they put out on a daily basis. I would like to know what effect, if any, the price increase has actually had on subscribers. Imagine if they did a reversal (aka Coke --> Coke Classic). What do you think the response would be from analysts and shareholders? Thanks,
