More consumers hooked on broadband - Jim Hu, CNET News.com
Broadband Internet use in U.S. homes surged 59 percent in 2002, fueled by consumer defections from slower dial-up connections, according to a study. The spike in broadband use came at a cost for slower narrowband access, which declined 10 percent in the United States between December 2001 and December 2002, according to Internet measurement firm Nielsen/NetRatings. Still, more Americans access the Web using narrowband connections vs. broadband, a difference of 74.4 million to 33.6 million users, respectively.
