Meanwhile, research from Parks Associates has found that the vast majority of European broadband users prefer watching videos away from their computer. The paper, entitled 'The Impact of Online Video in Europe', examines the impact of consumer preferences on future services found that broadband has changed video viewing habits in Western Europe, with over 20 percent of broadband-ready households watching a film or TV program online in the past six months. Despite this figure however, the researchers found considerable reluctance to embrace online video-watching with over 80 percent of broadband-ready households preferring to watch video the old-fashioned way on television, DVD, or in the cinema.
