CompuServe has nothing to do with the age of AOL ... CompuServe was acquired in the mid/late 90s and had already become a "has been" by then.
20 years / 1985 is absolutely correct ... AOL was first branded as Q-Link, as others have already pointed out ... they then rebranded to America Online (AOL) a few years later...
Members who joined in the first few years (talking late 80s) were given discounts indefinitely when they re-branded to AOL.
Guess I'm showing my age (I'm 33) ... Q-Link / AOL's allure years ago wasn't the internet (they didn't even offer it until later), but rather that they had lots of chatrooms where people could socialize / adult oriented chatrooms; on-line hookups.
