Great News!
In my view 2,500 AA miles is better value than the 3,000 HHonors points available at $50.
It also means that if you get up to $50 in a year, each basic e-rewards email (now worth 50c it seems) is worth the equivalent of 25 AA Miles - very respectable compared to mypoints.

You have until March 30th to spend the amount earned in the previous year.. so you have a little extra earning time.

What makes this even better is that the exchange rate of AA->HH is going to increase to 2-1 after Jan 1st also. So while $50 in E-rewards gets you 3000 HH pts, if you get 2500 AA miles, it can be part of a transfer to HH worth 5000 pts.
