How home automation could save cable companies

October 13, 2012

According to Parks Associates, which provides analyses on the home security industry, a quarter of all American households are currently equipped with home security systems. The industry’s largest growth occurred in the years just prior to the nation’s housing crisis, according to a report on the Parks Associates website.

From the article, "How home automation could save cable companies" by Madison Parker.
