AOL is the single largest access provider in the world. There are more
AOL members than several of its nearest competitors combined. I join in
complaining when AOL does something that I don't approve of, but I also
realize that sometimes you have to work around it -- especially if you
are providing a service that you want to be successful.
You are welcome to argue "AOL sucks" all day, and I won't waste my time
debating it. But some list owners simply don't have a choice but to deal
with what may comprise between 5-15% (or more) of their subscribership.
That's why I believe solutions are more useful than complaints, beyond
the therapeutic value of such.
