This report compares eight usage characteristics of broadband users in China to those of the U.S., including access devices, wired vs. wireless connections, dayparts online, hours per week, online activities, etc. Two graphs are available for every topic covered; one that compares the total population in each country, and one that only looks at users under age 35. Chinese broadband users are much younger; thus filtering the data on younger users (<35) helps to control this dramatic difference between the two countries.
