Greenwood Village, Colo. -- Adelphia, the nation's fifth-largest cable operator -- recently acquired jointly by Comcast and Time Warner Cable -- announced on Thursday the launch of an online music service for its high-speed Internet customers. The Adelphia Music subscription service offers unlimited streaming and downloading of 1.5 million tracks, provided by MusicNet, for $7.95 per month. While downloads under the plan are tethered to the PC, and will expire if a subscription lapses, the service also offers permanent downloads for an additional fee. Adelphia also launched a second subscription service, offering streamed Major League Baseball games, video clips from CNN.com and The Weather Channel, online games, printable greeting cards, and research tools from Encyclopedia Britannica. The Adelphia NetPak will cost subscribers an additional $9.95 per month. Adelphia said it partnered with Synacor to create the private-label music portal and NetPak service.
