Dublin - Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/ade296/spain_broadband) has announced the addition of the "Spain - Broadband Market - Statistics and Forecasts" report to their offering.

Spain's broadband penetration is on a par with the EU average, though subscribers have continued to contend with relatively high access prices and slow average data speeds. Nevertheless, the incumbent Movistar (formerly Telefnica) has launched 30Mb/s services, while some cablecos provide 100Mb/s. Prompted by the EC, the regulator in 2009 reversed its decision to protect Movistar's fibre network from competitor access, originally intended to safeguard the company's investments. Access through local loop unbundling is gaining pace, encouraging competition and lower prices in most regions. In this report we profile Spain's fixed and wireless broadband markets in 2011, together with developments in related technologies such as fibre, and broadband powerline. We also provide forecasts for broadband uptake from 2011-2013 and 2020.
