Executive Summary

Broadband adoption grew from 29% at the end of 2004 to 41% by the end of 2005 as consumers dumped dial-up in droves. The number of offline users fell only slightly from 33% in 2004 to 29% in 2005. Cable continued to cede market share to DSL, which grew to 46% of the households that we surveyed. The big news: New broadband subscribers from 2005 are mainstream — they represent a much broader cross section of income, tech optimism, and education than households that got broadband before 2005.
