What does @Home offer that say, ATT&T Worldnet can't, when AT&T is on cable?

I am using ATT&T Worldnet because I am long AT&T, why not spend the money where it does me some good? And I am perfectly happy with it. I see in today's Investor's Business Daily that AT&T chairman Michael Armstrong will head an FCC group on telephone network reliability. (Could say it's setting the fox to guard the henhouse.) But it seems plain as day that AT&T has a leg up on this technology, if only because it has so much cash.

Of course there is always room for competition, but here in the Washington Metro area, there are a lot of ISPs. You have to offer something special to differentiate yourself, and who does?

I also have AOL for the kids so they can't access porn and don't get spammed, and I am perfectly satisfied with that as well, but ATT Worldnet is faster.

See you,
