Introduction The New Zealand Commerce Commission is conducting a study into the demand for high speed broadband. The study aims to identify issues that might affect the uptake of high speed broadband in New Zealand. Further information about the study is available at: http: //www. comcom. govt. nz/high-speed-broadband-services-demand-side-study/ As part of this study, Roy Morgan Research was commissioned to undertake a survey on aspects of consumer demand for high speed broadband, including: • Satisfaction with current broadband services • Interest in new services that would be enabled by high speed broadband • Willingness to pay for high speed broadband • Barriers to uptake of high speed broadband • Consumer understanding of key broadband characteristics • Sources of information on the potential benefits of high speed broadband © 2011 Written approval must be obtained from Roy Morgan Research before circulation or publication of this data outside the client’s institution. www. roymorganonlinestore. com 3
Survey Details Methodology: The Single Source methodology is both a mail-out questionnaire as well as a short Computer Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI). The customised questionnaire was carried out using a CATI methodology from Roy Morgan’s call centre in Melbourne. Time period: The fieldwork for the customised questionnaire was carried out between October 17 th and November 4 th, 2011. Qualifying Respondents: The qualifying respondents for the customised questionnaire had to meet all of the following criteria: • Single Source recontacts from May 2010 – April 2011 • Has a fixed line at home • Has a mobile phone • Has broadband • Internet account was included on last home telephone bill Quotas and weighting: Age by gender by North/South Island quotas were implemented for this project. The sample was also post-weighted to account for an urban/rural split. This allowed us to obtain a nationally representative sample. Sample size: The final sample size for the customised questionnaire was 1, 053. © 2011 Written approval must be obtained from Roy Morgan Research before circulation or publication of this data outside the client’s institution. www. roymorganonlinestore. com 4

Key messages – New Zealand Consumers Broadband satisfaction • NZ connected consumers have expressed widespread satisfaction with most aspects of their current broadband services. • A slightly lower level of satisfaction in the provincial and rural areas is driven by lower satisfaction levels of data caps and the time taken to download/upload files. New broadband services • HD movies and TV on demand as well as HD virtual real time education are likely to be the greatest drivers to uptake. • This is particularly true for connected consumers under the age of 50. © 2011 Written approval must be obtained from Roy Morgan Research before circulation or publication of this data outside the client’s institution. www. roymorganonlinestore. com 13
