However, it doesn't thrill me that AOL is reaping the rewards of this successful lawsuit. Don't they already own the other half of the world that Microsoft doesn't?
If they'd pass this on to their customers by giving them discounts or using it to upgrade or crackdown spam on their servers, I'd be a bit more willing to give this a thumb's up.
This seems like a pyrrhic victory for those of us who get daily mail that will "make us rich without even thinking."

600k against a few spammers is certainly a step.
