Myself in 1999: 'A life time user of AOL is worth $500 easy. I don't see what is going to get me to leave the platform, ever.'

Interesting point, but I would guess AOL made $500 off each user they had in 1999.

They also charged money though. Unless everyone just stocked up on those 500 hours CDs.

I disagree. The usage was very different.

Oh, and I upvoted you by accident. Damn.

People constantly nagging you about supporting walled gardens?

Because right now that's the best idea I've got for bringing the wall down :(
