Good point. This still does not answer the question of why MSFT demanded the right to kick ATHM off Comcast. Maybe MSFT just wants to make deals, play people off each other, and maybe they were just not ready at that time to take on running a roadrunner operation. Maybe they are daydreaming about how they can introduce their own roadrunner clone. Maybe they want to use AOL somehow as a GUI. All kinds of maybes. None of them spell ATHM or T. MSFT likes to kick sand in the face of giants (like IBM). They would love to disrupt T's plans for phone over cable or at least make them pay through the nose for it. Don't forget MSFT has a giant satellite project to deliver T1 in the not-so-distant future.
