You might want to consider signing up for a free Usenet account from
http://news.individual.net/. That way you can try out some of the more
powerful readers that have crosspost management while still connecting to
AOL.

I've long used news.individual.net as a backup to my ISP and recommend it
highly. You won't get access to binary groups through it but the text
group retention is great and they're very responsive to adding new groups.
You won't see any ads and they don't spam you for signing up either.
