When I worked at AOL in 2010, dialup was their biggest source of revenue still. It'd be interesting to see the drop-off since then. I imagine it's trending down pretty quick as the generation using it kicks the bucket.
- firesteelrain 1y agoThere are older generations with aol.com email addresses including my MIL who despite being given multiple gmail addresses over the years still refuses to change and stop paying for it
- wmf 1y agoAOL mail has been free for a long time BTW. You can stop paying and keep the email account.
- firesteelrain 1y agoI will ask her if she still pays. Thank you for the tip. It could save her some noney
