Point-Topic reports (registration required) the number of broadband lines worldwide at 164m as of March 31. The US and China are still numbers 1 and 2. Highest growth was reported by Turkey (37%), followed by countries in Eastern Europe, Latin-America and Asia. Among the G7-nations, UK was number 1 growth area (17%) and France number 2 (14%).
Looking at DSL only (excluding cable modem), China is still number 1, US comes in at 2. However, calculating the number of DSL-lines per 100 phone lines paints a very different picture. South Korea heads the ranking at 28.9, Taiwan has 24.4. Neither the US nor China made it to the top 20. Germany is number 19 with a ratio of only 13.9.
