You think every accountant, realtor, coffee shop etc uses their own domain?
No. But they should not, and in many cases *cannot*, rely on aol or yahoo addresses. It would suck for them to have to change all their contact information, business cards, and so on - but a) they chose their email provider unwisely and that's the cost of relying on an inappropriate vendor and b) they don't really need to - inbound mail to those addresses is mostly fine, so they just need to get a second email address and gradually migrate their outbound usage to that. Because the root cause of this issue is a long series of security mistakes by those providers, allowing 3rd parties to have access to user's (supposedly private) account information, the issue is specific to those providers, and there's no strong argument that other email providers are likely to make the same business choices.
