U.S. Telecoms seen beating cable on broadband

Justin Hyde writes for Reuters:

U.S. local telephone companies likely outgunned the cable industry last quarter in the race for new high-speed Internet subscribers by their widest margin to date, according to analysts' estimates.

Industry experts say the sales figures for broadband lines due to be released with second-quarter earnings reports over the next couple of weeks are likely to be among the few bright spots in an otherwise lackluster period for the dominant telephone companies.
