AT T Selling Gigabit Services to More than 3 Million Locations Will Exceed 12 5 Million Locations by 2019


With the caveat that a “passing” (customer location that can buy a service) is not an “account,” AT&T says its gigabit services now are available in parts of 32 major metro areas, with plans to reach at least 45 metros by the end of 2016 and 67 markets overall.

AT&T says it is marketing service to over three million locations, of which over 500,000 include apartment and condo units. AT&T also says it is on track to exceed the 12.5 million locations planned by mid-2019.

More U S Teens Watch YouTube Than Linear TV

More U S Teens Watch YouTube Than Linear TV


Whether YouTube is a “substitute” product for linear TV is debatable. What apparently is harder to debate is that YouTube is a preferred venue for consumer video consumption among U.S. teenagers.

In a survey of U.S. teenagers, analysts at Piper Jaffray found teens spent more time watching YouiTube than watching linear TV. Though 37 percent of respondents reported watching Netflix, 26 percent said they watched YouTube, compared to 25 percent who reported watching linear TV.

And 40 percent say their top shopping website is Amazon, leading other sites by an order of magnitude.

More Data Will be Created by Machines than People

More Data Will be Created by Machines than People


It sometimes is hard to tell the difference between devices used by people (smartphones and other consumer devices) and those used by machines (Internet of Things). Health monitors and smart watches come to mind. They are worn by people, but “used” by servers.

Some refer to health monitor as “consume” IoT, in contrast to “industrial” IoT. The point is that there will be use cases that are hard to classify. “Smart clothing” might pose the same definitional issues.

Several years ago, for example, it would not have been unusual to find tablets classified in “connected devices” category that in some ways was the forerunner of today’s machine-to-machine or Internet of Things devices.

Perhaps few these days would count tablet connections in the IoT category. But there still are many consumer-focused appliances and machines that will be somewhat difficult to classify. Smart kitchen appliances might fall into that category.

Still, some would say connected PCs were the forerunners of today’s developing IoT markets. About the only widely-used device never really considered “IoT” are smartphones.

The point is that there is a difference between data or information created by people or machines.

Perhaps nothing is clearer than the expected benefits from deploying IoT in any setting. For product and service providers, revenue upside is the expected driver of behavior, often in indirect ways such as creating better user and customer experiences.
