Re: US Broadband Stats: HFC Broadband Users

Thread- Just a few figures pulled from a story off the HLIT thread. IMO the 2.5 million figure is definitely on the low side. And I believe the 200,000 cable telephony figure is close, but still low. And I've read numerous studies saying there are indeed, something in the order of 70 million US homes with cable TV. 70 million out of a estimated 100 million total US homes(includes apartments and condos, etc). -MikeM(From Florida)

Local demand for the Time Warner digital cable services seems to mirror a national trend. Michael Salerno, an
analyst at Adams Media Research in Carmel Valley, Calif., said the nation has 2.5 million cable modems.

Gary Arlen, an analyst at interactive services research firm Arlen Communications Inc. in Bethesda, Md., said there
now are 3.5 million U.S. households getting digital cable TV and more than 200,000 getting cable-based local phone service, which is relatively new. But those digital service customers represent only a fraction of the 66.5 million U.S. homes that subscribe to cable TV services.
