How does Connect compare with America Online?  The price looks the same 
except AO requires a minimum useage of 1 hr/month at $6.  If Connect only
charges for what you use and still has the Mac interface, this sounds like
a better deal.

How extensive are the services and libraries on Connect?  How does one
subscribe?  Is there a setup fee?

Thanks for any info.
