Cable is the way to go  Nice though that more people are on broadband and congrats to those companies for raking the dough. But im a firm cable advocate Where are the numbers for Cable users I'm sure its gotta be just as high if not higher :P

Cable is great if your provider is a good one. In my area of NYC I couldn't get cable internet access. My brother could. His speeds were lightspeed fast (better than 3Mbs) until the rest of his neighborhood got onboard. So, his node is full, and now his download speed is no better then mine (1.5Mbs), and his upload speed is capped at 80kbs (I have 128kbs). I also pay $40 USD less then he does. Guess what, he's in the process of switching. He got tired of paying so much for so [much] less.
So in some large areas with cable "market" saturation - if DSL is available it's usually cheaper. So why not try it!

I wasnt trying to start some neer neer thing, just want to see the numbers to cable that is all. How about Fiber also, DSL is not the only sort of broadband out there just makes my cable feel all left out

DSL is the worldwide favorite, cable is popular in the US. |

Cable numbers are constantly coming out in other articles... You just have to watch for them. This article's author chose to focus on DSL instead of cable, so just leave it at that.

Dogs drool. put both a cat and a dog out in the middle of nowhere. the dog will starve to death waiting for someone to feed it. the cat will fend for itself.

Your dog would eat the cat ?! The same dog as in the avatar ?! If it is, I'd be more worried about a cougar eating the dog than the dog starving to death.

That doesn't necessarily mean cable is better, just that it's available in more areas. Where I live (18,900 feet from my CO) it looks like my only option will be cable, if/when it becomes available in a few months.
