AOL is fucking rediculas, I never heard about all of those popups that they gave before. The thing is that they already charge $23.95 per month, don't they ?? Whereas most local places can offer access for $18 around here, so they're taking in an extra $6 more than most other places, so why the fuck do they have to put up popups ???

If people are already paying an ultra high rate for their service, then they shouldn't have any popups to deal with. I could understand them having pops if they were selling their service for $10, but they're not. I just wish that the millions of users would one day wake up and see that there's MUCH better access out there than AOL. For all of the newbies out there that are on AOL, they don't need their fucking browswer, all that they need is a decent homepage that has links to shit like that.

On another note, I FUCKING HATE AOL's 1000 free hour promotions, that's pretty nasty how they mislead people like that. If you read the fine print, it says "To be used in the first month", well, they should just say "first month free". I'm sure that misleads a bunch of people into thinking that 1000 hours would last them all yet. Then again, as with the adult business, it's all about reading the fine print, he he he.
