Just before its $45 billion deal with Time Warner Cable collapsed over regulators' fears about a giant cable company's control over the Web, Comcast was racking up more Internet customers. For the first time, the country's largest cable provider has just about as many Internet as cable customers 22.4 million each. Comcast still has about 6,000 more cable then Internet subscribers, but its Internet customers are expected to surpass cable this quarter. In the January-March period, the Philadelphia company added 407,000 high-speed Internet customers, the most since early 2013. It shed 8,000 video customers as more people migrate online for TV and movies. Regulators were concerned about the potential a combined Comcast and Time Warner Cable would have to undermine online video competitors.
