AOL, MSN engage in all out battle | |
|
||
| Time: 13:25 EST/18:25 GMT | News Source: InfoWorld | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||

One day before Microsoft is set to release the latest version of its MSN Internet access software, rival America Online (AOL) said Wednesday that its new 8.0 software has set download records since it launched last week, setting the stage for an all-out battle between the two Internet service providers ( ISPs). AOL claims that AOL 8.0 has been downloaded over 5 million times since the software launched Oct. 15, surpassing the record set by AOL 7.0 last year, which was downloaded 2.5 million times in the first five days. That the Dulles, Virginia, ISP's announcement comes one day before Microsoft prepares to launch MSN 8 is of little surprise, however, given the mounting competition between the two companies. | ||

Would AOL have said anything less?
I am sure MSN will do the same, fudge some numbers to make them look more attractive to potentional subscribers. Only time will tell ;-) |

| Yeah! http://www.msn.com/ is no longer purple! |

| They seem to work for me. They all look like msn.com with special company branding. |

| Lol. I didn't realize that I had been there after midnight. |

| Oh that butterfly cursor on the enlarged map on weather.com is just great. |
