NEW YORK Time Warner’s online and cable units, onetime competitors in the high-speed Internet connectivity realm, have agreed to promote each other’s services.

Under the agreement, America Online will plug Time Warner Cable’s Road Runner as a high-speed option when users register for its AOL for Broadband $14.95 per month premium-content package. Road Runner, in turn, will offer customers a sampling of AOL’s exclusive broadband programming.

AOL, which continues to sell dial-up Internet connections, opened the way for such a cooperative relationship when it exited the high-speed connectivity space earlier this year.
