A new report has revealed that revenue generated by consumer broadband value-added services (BVAS) has continued to experience considerable growth this year.
According to London-based market research group Point Topic, worldwide revenue more then doubled, rising from $3.3 billion in 2003 to $6.9 billion in 2004.
The number of consumer broadband lines has also grown by approximately 45 per cent to over 131 million, the report adds.
"Most value-added services delivered over broadband increased in both users and total revenues," said John Bosnell, senior analyst at Point Topic.
"Services such as video over broadband, music and voice over IP (VoIP) all grew strongly," he added.
