This still does not answer the question of why MSFT demanded the right to kick ATHM off Comcast.

Microsoft is one of three junior partners in the five-partner RoadRunner company. That seems like a pretty good reason.

Don't forget MSFT has a giant satellite project to deliver T1 in the not-so-distant future.

As far as I know, Microsoft has not invested in Craig McCaw's Teledesic sattelite system. Bill Gates, as an individual, is, however, one of the major investors.
