It's ironic that up until now, the only thing
 Adelphia was famous for was being a small-town 
Pennsylvania operation in the middle of 
nowhere, run by this family who was so "moral" 
that they refused to put X-rated adult video 
channels on any of their systems, which really 
ticked off some of their subscribers in big cities 
like L.A. 

Now their founder and a couple of his sons have 
been arrested...not just charged, but actually 
arrested for defrauding their investors and using 
their money for corporate jets, private golf 
courses, etc.

AT&T, Comcast, and Charter come to mind as bigger 
cable companies.  Is AT&T the biggest right now?  I  
wouldn't be surprised.
