You can still find AOL disks, most notably at Wal Mart. They just dont send them out as much in the mail.

I know that, you missed the point. If they (AOL) transition from being an ISP to nothing more than an ad-driven media portal, then no need for disks any more?

Not true. You still need the client software to access services and chats, including radio and email.

Well, time will tell. If they are portal only, then you can download the system since you do not need the dialer section to get in and the main system could be slowly downloaded as needed/a bit at a time.

But then again, this IS AOL who had a good thing going but messed it up (I bailed in the early 90's).
