I don't have URL's, but the three articles I mentioned:

1) TCI steps up digital rollout - by Bloomberg & News Service

A part of that article: TCI, fueled by the success of its digital cable-television rollout in Denver, quietly began selling its new product in eight more markets in seven other states.

TCI is on "a very aggressive" schedule, expection to add additional markets in each week through the end of the year, said LaRae Marsik, spokeswoman for the company.

Denver customers-service workers were overwhelmed Nov. 14, the first day orders were accepted.

2) SPORTS ON TV: Fox bring new attitude to cable sports.
The article talks about Fox "dramatically in the past year, gobbling up rights to local sports teams and regional sports networks. It is now seen in about 58 million hmes, 14 million fewer than rival ESPN." It goes on to talk about Fox "embracing the digital age" of TV.

3) Murdoch Banking on Couch Potatoes.
Talks about Murdoch betting on TV. "Murdoch is looking to cash in on the convergence of the Net with TV through direct broadcast satellite and set-top boxes. Putting his money where his thoughts are, Murdoch will launch British Interactive Broadcasting next year, with US$500million invested by News Corp. British Telecom, Matsushita, and others to heavily subsidize set-top boxes."
