I use @HOME and could never go back to dial up, but i am long on AOL for the very reason that most new users seem to go to what they recognize, and they recognize the name America Online. I am long on @HOME as well, the CEO of @HOME recently stated that %50 of its new subscribers were/are AOL customers.

While I see @HOME growing at a faster percentage than AOL (and at the expense of many existing AOL customers) there is no denying the fact that AOL will still gain the majority of NEW net users in the years to come. This will ensure that AOL maintains a strong subscriber base. Add that to its other non subscription related activities (ie netscape, icq, software development etc) this stock has plenty of room for growth.
