The number of users still grow &#8211; but at ever-lower rates.<\/p>\n<p>The report also shows how the (decrease) in growth rates differ between the young and the elder ones.<\/p>\n<p>The report dwells on the burning question of the media-market: will advertising prices continue to drop, arguing that the limitation in the growth in the supply of ad-spots, which automatically follows a stagnation in the number of page views, will stop prices from following further. All other things being equal, that is.<\/p>\n<p>Following the question of the supply of ad-spots, the report also take a brief look at the long tail. And finds that it might be long, but not fat. Most pages are viewed at sites visited by more than ninety thousand adult Danes. And the proportion is growing.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2>Download  full report<\/h2>\n<p>Send, download and print.
