This just in: "RoadRunner is a service of AOL Time Warner, but AFAIK, it's only an ISP that has cable companies ("MSO's") as affiliates. Road Runner isn't a cable television provider, itself." I believe, however that Andy is right. I think my confusion is that COX bought the AT&T @home groups, which includes roadrunner. usually AT&T is the one buying. Thanks for the info. Jane
