Key words there.. "Large Provider" ..  I don't think A/V companies
have any interest whatsoever in smaller providers..  Just not a big
enough customer base I guess...

It would be nice to see an A/V provider willing to take that first
step and offer something like this to providers, regardless of size. 
No packaging needed, so there's a cost savings there for the vendor.

I'm not familiar with how this works in AOL land..  Does the end-user
need to subscribe to anything other than AOL?  ie, are there any
"hidden" fees?
