|  AOL become a Yahoo.com or MSN.com ??
Somehow I doubt that AOL trying to turn itself into a desirable free web portal like Yahoo.com or MSN.com will ever happen successfully. No matter how hard they may try to become that, I just don't see it happening. TW should spin off AOL and let it swim or sink on its own - probably sink.

Check out AOL.com.. Look familiar? They have 2GB free mail, Google search, a large library of free TV (which will be getting bigger soon) and lots of other things that make them comparable to MSN or Yahoo.com |

And how much ad revenue will they draw?

| I read it everyday. Mostly their front page news articles, and their money section. Both are very good. I don't use their free email though, their AIM Pro is very good (AIM pro is the new IM for business they just released, I think its much better then even AIM Triton). |

As long as AOL charges for service, they will be perceived as a company who charges for something that they can get for free elsewhere. Adopting a free web portal policy will take them a step further to being viewed as a peer of Yahoo or Google. |
