Aren't AOL's indirect revenues (ads) greater than their direct revenues from access fees? No, actually, access fees account for a much larger portion of their revenue. Which bodes well in the near term, given their explosive subscriber growth, but which gives pause for what they will do when the access cash cow runs out of milk. I suppose at that time they will just become another Yahoo, and go to the moon :-)

athm does not get all of the monthly cost a subscriber pays for internet access, so the $500 per year is an incorrect amount. I am not sure what cut they get and what cut the cable companies get.
