At peak in 2003 there were 9.1 millions minitels for 55 millions people so not ubiquitous but common.
3611 used to offer the first 3 minutes free for a few years then removed this.
- vbernat 9y ago3611 was free until 2007, when it became mostly irrelevant. 9.1 millions of minitels is about half the population (in number of households). I don't think that 2003 was a peak since Internet was already there for quite some time (people could get broadband at this time).
- Renaud 9y agoPeople had a minitel per family, not per person, so nearly 10 million minitels make for a pretty good penetration rate.
