I think you have to join with the email from your ISP if you want to join without paying.

when I worked for one of the big computer distributors there was real snobbery regarding AOL and the people who use it.
One of the tech support guys told me a bit of a techy urban legend that someone so hated AOL users that they emailed them all and told them to delete the evil and invasive AOL.EXE virus
I don't know how true that story is but boy do techies I've worked with hate AOL users
