Agree with all of you. The Admirals Club is not the greatest, but it's the ONLY lounge available to AA passengers at most US airports. PP lounges are non-existent at my home airport (DCA), or they're located in international terminals with limited hours and not accessible to domestic travelers. The Admirals Club benefit was the primary reason I applied for a Prestige Card and is the primary reason I will drop the card at renewal time.
