IS LIBERTY EYEING ON COMMAND CORP.?

There is speculation that Ascent Entertainment Group may be putting its 57% stake in On Command Corporation in play. On Command funnels pay-per-view movies to more than 1 million hotel rooms around the world. On Command's best growth prospects lie in delivering Internet-access, on-screen shopping, video game, out-of-market sports events and other digitally based services. These are areas that John Malone has been following for years.

Peter Barton, a Malone protege who ran Liberty Media when it was a TCI unit, sits on Ascent's board. In addition, J.C. Sparkman, a long-time Malone lieutenant at TCI, is on On Command's board of directors.
