Getting an AOL Disk or CD in the Mail

Ever wonder how many of those floppies and CDs AOL sent out over the years? You’re not alone. But no one seems to know the answer.

AOL CD

AOL CD

AOL sent out “free month” offers to any mailing list they could find and had displays stocked with discs in stores across the country. The supply of AOL marketing material appeared endless, right up until the mailings stopped a few years back. People who devoted their time to collecting or shunning the discs haven’t figured out what to do with themselves since (nor have I figured out what I’m supposed to use for coasters now).

With AOL, I mean Aol (their odd new branding), changing their focus and no longer offering their original dial up services, the free offer discs have become obsolete. Anyone still using Aol?
