>>It is also backed up by AOL's numbers on how their users spend their time online.<<

Show me a hard (independent) statistic that reveals AOL users avoid YHOO :) You won't get it from AOL's numbers.

>>I am asking .... how will they make significant money.<<

You are obviously ignoring the answer to this.
More page views...more ad revenue.
More eyeballs...higher value assigned to the ad space...more revenue.

Second business model (e-commerce) just beginning...expected to produce yearly growth in excess of 200% over the next several years!! The e-commerce industry is expected to hit 65+ billion!

You are operationalizing from the viewpoint YHOO will cease to attract viewers. Not likely.

.>> The more you use the web, the less you need any directory<<

Not true. You even said that websites come on-line by the thousands. How are you going to find these sites without a directory? :)

and what's the directory everyone is most familiar with...

YES!!!

YAHOO!!!
