With bandwidth speeds improving and new pricing and packages, many customers find DSL to be a better bargin than Cable Internet Access. Recent studies cited by CNET and others show a correlation between income and high speed internet preference, with households with $75k+/yr selecting Cable Internet Access, and households with under $75k/yr opting for DSL.

It is not hard to understand why DSL providers have begun to close the subscription gap with Cable Internet providers. For example, AT&T's DSL service for $12.99 per month delivers more than enough bandwith speed, 1,5 Mbps, for all but the most demanding residential Broadband applications. Why would anybody who didn't need the extra bandwidth pay the premium prices for it?
