It has about 15 million subscribers to its broadband Internet service while its Comcast Digital Voice, a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) telephone service, has about 6.5 million customers. Comcast also has programming interests, such as VERSUS and The Golf Channel, and it owns E! Entertainment Television. One-third of Comcast is controlled by CEO Brian Roberts, son of founder and former chairman Ralph Roberts.
