Have you checked for other connections or other dates that would work better for you? Since they changed you off a non stop flight, then if you can find another routing that you prefer, you can cancel altogether and get all your money back. Considering your date of travel, I would assume that everything is all full for that date though. Since you can cancel without any penalty, if you find another routing that works better for you, you could call them up and probably they will change you to it. They would rather do that than give you your money back.

Did you check the schedules to see if there are any more favorable flights that day? If yes, AA will generally go miles out of their way to accommodate their passengers when there is such a significant change in a booking.
And for what it's worth, there's no rhyme or reason to when and why they cancel flights. For two years running they cancelled April flights that were very heavily booked as early as November, one time booking us on flights that couldn't possibly work, but in each case when I called them, they booked me on other flights that were more to my liking, even allowing me to change my departure airport, at the same price I had originally booked and in the same seats. We had booked Business/first on the n/s and they put us in Business/first on both of the connecting legs we ended up on.
It's very annoying and I hope they're able to do something to make the situation a little better for you. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />
