Not just AOL Internet, but also the email service. Same for Hotmail. I used to work at iHeart, and the number of those email services (from prize winners) was not insignificant.
Hotmail was owned by Microsoft when I signed up in the late 90s. It's no surprise it's still around. It hasn't been my primary email for a long time, but I still use it as my MS account. So really it's just my Minecraft account.
I have a few accounts floating around for different services Microsoft has bought out or since integrated logins for. I genuinely don't know how many Microsoft accounts I have, and it's always a pain trying to guess which one a given service is on
