Broadband users in Western Europe may be even more interested in living ‘The Connected Life’ than US consumers, according to new research from the Cisco Internet Business Solutions Group (IBSG). Some 90 percent of European broadband users expressed an interest in a connected life service - anytime, anywhere access to all household digital media content - compared to only 77 percent in the US. Furthermore, 42 percent are willing to spend EUR 3.50 per month to enable easy management of and access to their household digital content, yet they struggle to find an innovative solution which is simple, quick to install and highly secure. The Cisco IBSG Connected Consumer study canvassed the views of 1,500 broadband users across France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK. The suggested household content includes TV, films, the household calendar and address book, digital photos, video clips and music.
