Monday, 26 December 2005- Year after year, broadband speed increases as well as the number of people accessing broadband increases, giving rise to a broad range of broadband enabled services. Although, most people are looking for high speed, but only speed cannot contribute to the development in this technology. The primary thing is to expand the broadband enabled services. It is predicted that the two main areas of broadband, TV and telephony will see a lot of conflict this year. The anxiety levels are high with regards to for what Internet service providers and third party organizations have to offer. The net telephony providers are predicted to compete with Vonage and Skype to provide telecom services via broadband. Likewise, BBC and Apple will compete with established Internet service providers. Experts may observe blogs, podcasts and other consumer-generated content.

The effect of consumers contributing back to the Internet will also be taken into consideration. With 50% of homes having access to broadband, things are going in place and it is expected that the technology is going to make it big. Last year was an interesting year for broadband users in UK. The offer to double the speeds of 1Mbps for no extra cost made by BT made their competitors go a step further. Bulldog increased its speed to 8Mbps and cable firm NTL to 10Mbps. With the coming of ADSL2+ in the end of the year, a speed up to 24Mbps was assured. With the remote areas left out with lower speeds, it has become an issue of concern. The limitations of this fast broadband have raised speculations about how much the technology can offer. The performance of ADSL2+ depends on how far the people live from their local telephone exchange and their quality of telephone line. So before buying the new service, people should get their telephone lines tested to check what speed can be supported. Till the next year, around 60% of homes will have the technology and the demand for high speed will continue to increase.
