The Internet Is A Series Of Tubes
Thought the latest report on high speed services released yesterday by the FCC was an appropriate occasion to revisit this viral from The Daily Show.
A couple items stood out in the report, including the total number of high speed lines moving past the 50 million mark and that this is the first time, according to the FCC release, that more additions of DSL lines occurred than cable modem lines. The FCC study reports that during the second half of 2005 DSL added 3.2 million lines while cable added 1.6 million lines. In a world that focuses so heavily on market share and churn, how will the cable industry respond to that reported 2 to 1 growth rate discrepancy? Short term blip or dangerous trend?
While reading the release I learned about a FCC statistics hub known as the The Wireline Competition Bureau Statistical Reports that collects and publishes data from the forms that telecommunications services companies must file with the FCC.
