It is the second largest cable company in the U.S. by revenue behind only Comcast, operating in 29 states.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Top 25 Multichannel Video Service Customers (2012) )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Time Warner Cable Overview and Coverage )〕 Its corporate headquarters are located in the Time Warner Center in Midtown Manhattan, New York City,〔"(Investor Relations Contact Us )." Time Warner Cable. Retrieved on March 6, 2010.〕 with other corporate offices in Stamford, Connecticut; Charlotte, North Carolina; and Herndon, Virginia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.timewarnercable.com/corporate/about/careers/locations.html )〕 Originally controlled by Warner Communications, later Time Warner (the film and television production company and cable channel operator), that company spun off the cable operations in March 2009 as part of a larger restructuring. Since then, Time Warner Cable has been an entirely independent company, merely continuing to use the Time Warner brand under license from its former parent (it also previously used the "Road Runner" name for its internet service). In 2014, the company was the subject of a proposed purchase by Comcast Corporation, valued at $45.2 billion; however, following opposition to the deal by various groups, along with plans by the U.S. government to try and block the merger, Comcast called off the deal in April 2015. On May 26, 2015, Charter Communications announced that it would acquire Time Warner Cable for $78.7 billion, along with Bright House Networks in a separate $10.1 billion deal, pending regulatory approval. Charter expects to complete the former transaction by the end of 2015. == History == Time Warner Cable was formed in 1992 through the merger of Time Inc.'s cable television company, American Television and Communications Corp. (service areas previously belonging to that company went under the ''Time Warner Communications'' name; since the 1990s, areas that previously had that name have either been renamed to Time Warner Cable, Bright House Networks, or have been given to other cable providers), and Warner Cable, a division of Warner Communications, as a result of a merger to form Time Warner; for the two years after the initial merger, both companies operated separately but under the umbrella name "Time Warner Cable Group"; they formally merged into one entity in 1992. It also includes the remnants of the defunct QUBE interactive TV service. In 1995, the company launched the Southern Tier On-Line Community, a cable modem service later known as Road Runner High Speed Online. That same year, talks began that would later result in Warner's acquisition of Paragon Cable. Glenn Britt (1949–2014) was the CEO from 2001 until December 2013. Time Warner retained Time Warner Cable as a subsidiary until March 2009, when it was spun out as an independent company. Prior to the spin-out, Time Warner had held an 84% stake in Time Warner Cable. Non-Time Warner shareholders received 0.083670 shares for each share already owned. This move made Time Warner Cable the largest cable operator in the United States owned solely by a single class of shareholders (without supervoting stock).〔 〕 In June 2009, Time Warner Cable unveiled a concept known as "TV Everywhere"—a means of allowing multi-platform access to live and on-demand content to content from television channels that is tied to a user's television subscription. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Time Warner Cable」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
