I don't know. I (and thousands of others) run a business online. A lot of my customers would be too moronic to figure out how to use the internet were it not for AOL. As AOL (the internet service) grows and brings more people online, the online economy grows with it. I do have issues with Time Warner and would never use the AOL service myself (unless I was going to be on an extended travel trip or something). Should everyone who has AIM or ICQ switch to ODIGO to avoid AOL and Microsoft?

Well, I don't think AOL makes any money off AIM or ICQ from the people who use those programs (except from the people who advertise on them). So I guess that wouldn't be much of a problem. I actually use AIM, because it's a basically a standard for instant messaging, and most people I know use it or AOL's standard service. AOL has done a service for introducing many people to the Internet.

Warner Bros used to have interesting movies. Not anymore.
