Broadband’s New Race to the Top

One of the challenges in selling faster broadband services is consumers don’t necessarily know what “faster” really means. Historically, most consumers have little idea what broadband speed they have in their home, much less how much speed that they actually need. In recent Parks Associates survey results, 43% of U.S. broadband households are unwilling to guess at their broadband speed, even when provided broad ranges as options. An additional 7% claim to subscribe to gigabit-speed services, a figure that seems high when considering the limited availability of such service offerings.

From the article "Broadband’s New Race to the Top" by Brett Sappington.
