Ofcom Update Highlights Broadband
Posted: 01st Sep, 2005 By: MarkJ
Ofcom's quarterly update has highlighted broadband as "the lead story in the telecoms sector". By June 2005, there were a record 8.1 million broadband connections in the UK:
The growth in broadband connections has driven the uptake of products and services that are either unique to broadband, or that provide a far more satisfying user experience at faster broadband speeds. BTs competitor DSL ISPs have been rapidly gaining market share over the past two years, to a point where they now comprise 47% of all broadband connections, and the cable companies have a combined 28% market share of broadband.
Total retail telecoms revenues in the 12 months to March 2005 were £36.6 billion, 5% higher than over the previous 12 month period.
