Internet Users Show Support For Broadband
US broadband subscribers are more happy with their internet connections than their dial-up counterparts, according to the latest research from Arbitron and Edison Media Research.
A survey showed that more than 70% of digital subscriber line (DSL) and cable modem broadband users were “very satisfied” with their connection compared to just 31% of narrowband users.
Arbitron and Edison estimate that the number of residential broadband users in the US has more than doubled in the last two years. Back in January 2001, only 7% of the total population had high-speed internet access at home compared to 18% at the start of this year.
