| Toolz, the problem is cost...
 Let's say they want 1 cent per email... that is pretty low.
 
 Let's say your email click out rate is 1%, which would be pretty high.
 
 You have a site that converts 1 in 200 on your mailer traffic.
 
 100* 200 * 0.01 = $200 costs per sale.  In order to get that down to "break even" for most operators, the cost from aol would have to be in the range of 1/10 of a cent per mail - otherwise the cost price of doing business would make it impossible.
