What's left are the cable systems that are majority owned or fully owned by Time Warner, which is what's being spun out. ]]>Apr 30th 2008 12:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/time-warner-plans-to-spin-off-time-warner-cable-at-long-last/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/time-warner-plans-to-spin-off-time-warner-cable-at-long-last/
ATT - The monopoly grows once again.

Foreign Media Companies - Dollar's weak, makes it a semi-bargain.

Microsoft - Has billions & billions & billions & billions in cash. Could merge AOL with Yahoo and make Google really squirm. Gets ready to go home distribution system.

Google - Has billions & billions & billions & billions in cash too; Could merge AOL with main search engine. Would go a long way in spiting Microsoft for buying Yahoo. Gets ready to go home distribution system.

Private Equity - Maybe, but more likely to partner with one of the two above or Yahoo, allowing Yahoo to remain independent..

HD channels look good but they need to offer more. USA is not HD. It's stretch-o-vision at best. Same with TNT and a few others. ]]>Apr 30th 2008 1:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/time-warner-plans-to-spin-off-time-warner-cable-at-long-last/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/time-warner-plans-to-spin-off-time-warner-cable-at-long-last/Apr 30th 2008 2:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/time-warner-plans-to-spin-off-time-warner-cable-at-long-last/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/time-warner-plans-to-spin-off-time-warner-cable-at-long-last/Apr 30th 2008 5:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/time-warner-plans-to-spin-off-time-warner-cable-at-long-last/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/time-warner-plans-to-spin-off-time-warner-cable-at-long-last/

Meanwhile, AT&T and Verizon are in the process of doing the reverse (more AT&T than Verizon, though), going back to the one-bill-one-company.

Soon enough, I'm sure the cycle will change and everything that's old will be new again.]]>Apr 30th 2008 12:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/time-warner-plans-to-spin-off-time-warner-cable-at-long-last/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/time-warner-plans-to-spin-off-time-warner-cable-at-long-last/
When I talked with them, they said I did return a cable modem at that time, but that I had another cable modem out that I never returned at the same time. Why would I need two cable modems for a one bedroom apartment, especially since I have a wireless router? And why are they sending me the bill three years late when I no longer live at that apartment and have had DirecTV and DSL which is worlds better? Idiots.

Anyone else getting screwed recently by Time Warner? They are trying to clean up now and this must be the reason.

Is this a spin-off, a split-off? Who gets the shares of TMC? Who will control the board? What are TM's intended goals by making this change? What will we as internet user, an possibly clients of TMC gain from this transaction?

The article cited requires registration, so I couldn't readily answer these question if they were in fact stated in the article?]]>Apr 30th 2008 12:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/time-warner-plans-to-spin-off-time-warner-cable-at-long-last/http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/30/time-warner-plans-to-spin-off-time-warner-cable-at-long-last/
