Global Broadband Prices Down in 2008

Prices for residential high-speed Internet services are down 20 percent globally from the start of 2008 according to British research firm, Point Topic.

Point Topic states that the biggest price drop is for DSL broadband over phone lines, with the average monthly price falling from nearly US$67 in the first quarter to US$53 in the third.

However, it says little of the decrease has happened in the United States, where prices have been largely stable and are already lower than the global average.
