@Home considers Road Runner pairing

REDWOOD CITY, California--A senior executive with high-speed cable Internet access
provider @Home said the door may be open for a possible deal with Road Runner, another
entrant in the market.

Executives from @Home said in an interview with CNET News.com that it would make more sense
for the duo to cooperate and tackle the booming market for high-speed Net access together, rather
than remain independent companies.

A pairing--either through a cooperative marketing effort or a traditional merger--might make even more
sense given both firms' ties to communications giant AT&T.

Senior @Home executives appear amenable to a deal.

"I can't imagine it not happening," said Charles Moldow, vice president of sales and marketing for
@Media, the company's content unit.

Speculation has swirled around a possible deal since AT&T earlier this week agreed to form a joint
venture with Time Warner, parent of Road Runner.
