Memo: Faster and cheaper broadband: Commission study shows significant fall in prices in 2008 in Europe

European consumers paid less for their fixed broadband internet access (DSL, cable modem, fibre) in 2008 than a year ago according to a study released on 25 March, 2009, by the European Commission. However, there were significant differences between Member States in broadband retail prices and cost structure for similar products. EU rules should be consistently applied in a telecoms single market for all businesses and consumers equally.
