If they lose 7% of their subscriber base every quarter, how long until they are gone?
I thought they were gone.:shock: I mean its been ages since I've gotten an AOL CD in the mail.
Is it just a coincidence that AT&T and Comcast have nearly an identical market share and # of subscribers?:tinfoilhat:]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21528204 Thu, 04 Dec 2008 16:46:52 EDT Re: AOL cease to exist? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21528085 BF69 :

None. While the percentage says relatively even, the absolute numbers are declining.

AOL's subscriber losses the past several quarters.
3Q06 -2,502,000 (14%)
4Q06 -2,015,000 (13.3%)
1Q07 -1,184,000 (9.0%)
2Q07 -1,071,000 (8.9%)
3Q07 -851,000 (7.8%)
4Q07 -740,000 (7.3%)
1Q08 -647,000 (6.9%)
2Q08 -604,000 (7.0%)

Still, that's an incredible subscriber loss. From 17,700,000 at June 30, 2006 to 8,086,000 two years later.
Just 6 years ago AOL had 26.7 million subscribers.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21528085 Thu, 04 Dec 2008 16:27:12 EDT Re: AOL cease to exist? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21528064 BF69 :

It would take 7 more years for them to drop to 1 million subscribers. 12 years to drop to 250K, 15 years to drop to 100K. Of course that's assuming once they get that low AOL would care to still be an ISP.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21528064 Thu, 04 Dec 2008 16:23:33 EDT Re: AOL cease to exist? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21528060 ScottMo : None.
