Sure, but how much money could they make off of it? 17,000 theatres X some # of movie-goers per theatre per month, times 12 months a year, times $money a moviegoer would pay for moviefone ($1?) experience per go... looks like not much money, not for AOL.
That’s giving money to theaters. How does Moviefone make money buying ads?
