Adelphia Communications, Southern California’s largest cable operator, has launched Adelphia Music, a new online music service for its high-speed Internet customers, offering access to more than 1.5 million music tracks.

Adelphia Music is powered by the business-to-business digital music service MusicNet, which offers the largest available online subscription music library, including licensed tracks from all major record labels as well as thousands of independent labels.

The new service provides Adelphia’s high-speed Internet customers with access to exclusive song titles, music videos, editorial play lists and other features, all of which are available in CD quality audio. Subscribers may stream or download as many songs as they want to play on their PCs. In addition, they have the option to purchase songs that they want to own permanently, to burn to CD or transfer to supported portable music players. The service is suitable for all ages, and provides parents with the ability to restrict access to titles containing explicit lyrics.

“Adelphia Music enhances the value of our high-speed Internet service by making it affordable, safe and fun for our customers to find their favorite music or discover new music online,” said Karl Ossentjuk, Vice President of Marketing for Adelphia Southern California. “For about half the price of one CD per month, our customers will have access to tremendous music choice, with the flexibility to purchase only those songs that they want to own permanently.”

As the largest cable provider in Southern California, Adelphia provides a full range of entertainment and communication services, including basic and digital cable television and high-speed Internet access. For more information, visit Adelphia’s local web site at www.adelphiasocal.com.
