    Notes: After threatening to top the number of pay-TV subscribers last year, the number of cable companies’ broadband subscribers finally reached that milestone during Q2, per LRG data. Overall, though, the number of US broadband subscribers (85.9 million) boasted by the top providers trails the number of pay-TV subscribers (95.5 million) enjoyed by the top providers, as cable providers have a larger share of the broadband than pay-TV market (which has gradually been shifting to telephone providers).
