You've got... no more dial-up: AOL ends 34 years of dial-up internet

AOL is set to discontinue its dial-up internet service by the end of September, marking the end of an era for the landline-based connection that once introduced millions to the internet. At its peak in 2000, AOL had 25 million subscribers; however, about 160,000 Americans still use dial-up, especially in areas where broadband is unavailable or unaffordable.
