Yahoo and AOL are both Internet service providers.
(Note: AOL does not let you view the Internet. It is not a real type connection, its not actually giving you the web page. I cant really explain it)
They both come with web browsers.
And they both have features.
Overall, Yahoo is better. Because it comes with ALWAYS SCANNING virus protection, unlike AOL, which only monitors when you are running AOL.
Yahoo comes with antispyware, parental controls, and more. But so does AOL. But in Yahoo, everything is easier to control.
Just don't get AOL. If you don't like Yahoo, then go ahead and get AOL. But its your choice!

Yahoo is much better hands down. AOL is runs nothing but proprietary software on their end and they run a different mail protocol than Yahoo which tends to cause issues when trying to email out of applications. Also AOL completely monitors your every move and it's almost impossible to completely remove AOL once you install it. Yahoo SBC is better as your ISP, much better.

yahoo has more features than AOL, yahoos music is way better, Aol has low music options, in yahoo there are alot of games and in AOL, you cant play most of the games because you need to have an AOL account, this is terrible, and besides i like yahoo answers, its great, but other than that I think AOL sucks,

If your talking websites then very little.
If your talking ISP then AOL is a proxy ISP and Yahoo is a passive ISP. (Proxy means that the ISP downloads a webpage for you. That also means they can trace certain access with YOUR account. Passive means they give you a DNS address and let you connect straight into WWW.)
