the US were early Internet
adopters...according to
an October 2006 study by
BIG research and Home
Electronics Journal... the
study found that 93% of
US affluent consumers
research upcoming
consumer electronics
purchases [online]..."

"Seventy-seven percent
of consumer electronics
(CE) purchases were
influenced by Internet
research. Of the total $32.5
billion spent on CE products,
online research influenced a
striking 77% or $25.1 billion.
Consumers naturally want to
make informed CE buying
decisions and we found they
are turning to the Internet
for their research."

Research Tim Herbert, CEA
