New York - DSL will overtake cable as the leading broadband service in the U.S. by 2010, according to a report from market research firm JupiterResearch. U.S. broadband penetration is projected to increase from 36% of households in 2005 to 65% by 2011, when 79 million U.S. households will have broadband access. "U.S. cable operators will have to combine price cuts and better marketing efforts to forestall this outcome," said JupiterResearch research director Joe Laszlo. Jupiter also predicts that far lower broadband prices will drive higher broadband penetration in Western Europe, where in 2011 DSL will be in 88.9 million of the 110 million projected total broadband households.
