A not-so-shocking study (http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080612-study-consumers-lust-after-high-speed-broadband-not-hdtv.html) has revealed that consumers prize fast Internet speeds above all other modern services. The study examined services provided by cable, Internet, phone and satellite companies and found that the number one service that people want is broadband. "This suggests to us that, while multichannel video providers may be spending a lot of their ad dollars promoting their high-def channels and their 'triple-play' bundles, they still rely on their broadband speeds to seal the deal with customers," Pike & Fischer Broadband Advisory Services Scott Sleek said in a statement. "Every one wants to claim that they offer the fastest Internet access, and believe that will be more important to customers than how many HD channels they offer."
