Joan, Don't believe everything you read on the internet. This is a hoax. AOL does not sell subscriber names, nor will it give paying entities "email priority". For one thing, regulating email flow would not be cost effective, and a logistical nightmare. AOL has had a long standing reputation of blocking spam (of which this rumor speaks), and what this is talking about is giving spam priority. I can't believe you fell for this.

I have to admit, I do enjoy the continued false information given out against AOL. There are rumors every day about things they are going to do to others, that are just old wives tales. For extra services they have considered an additional charge, but it is not in effect and probably never will be. I guess when you are the biggest it comes with the territory. I am not stupid, (shut up Paul), and I have used AOL since I started to understand the inter-net. It has never gone down for me, has continued to give me great service, and so far has done me no harm. I pay $9.00 a month, use four names, and have it at home, and on my office computers. My office uses three names, and Tedi has at least five, all on the same account. My office manager uses the account both at the office and at her home. Here I sit in Tracy, California, in a motel, on line with AOL with my lap-top. It is never a problem to get on line, and I have never lost a connection, yet. I know that some have had problems with AOL, but from my experience, I have not seen those situations, and keep reading how terrible AOL is to work with. I guess I am the only person in the world who loves the service. They must be working hard against everyone else.
