For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, Cable Communications segment revenue was derived from the following sources:
|  | Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended
|  | June 30 | June 30
|  | 2014 | 2013 | 2014 | 2013
Residential: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

| High-speed Internet | 25.6 | % | 24.5 | % | 25.6 | % | 24.6 | %
| Voice | 8.4 | % | 8.7 | % | 8.5 | % | 8.8 | %
Business services | 8.7 | % | 7.5 | % | 8.6 | % | 7.4 | %

Subscription revenue received from customers who purchase bundled services at a discounted rate is allocated proportionally to each service based on the individual service’s price on a stand-alone basis. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, 2.8% of Cable Communications segment revenue was derived from franchise and other regulatory fees. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, 2.8% and 2.9%, respectively, of Cable Communications segment revenue was derived from franchise and o ther regulatory fees. Beginning in 2014, Fandango, our movie ticketing and entertainment business that was previously presented in our Cable Networks segment, is now presented in the Filmed Entertainment segment to reflect the change in our management repo rting presentation. Due to immateriality, prior period amounts have not been adjusted. The change in presentation resulted in the reclassification of $195 million of goodwill from our Cable Networks segment to our Filmed Entertainment segment. NBCUniversal Headquarters and Other activities includes costs associated with overhead, allocations, personnel costs and headquarter initiatives. Included in Eliminations are transactions that our segments enter into with one another. The most common types of transact ions are the following: our Cable Networks and Broadcast Television segments generate revenue by selling programming to our Cable Communications segment, which represents a substantial majority of the revenue elimination amount our Cable Communications s egment generates revenue by selling advertising and by selling the use of satellite feeds to our Cable Networks segment our Filmed Entertainment and Broadcast Television segments generate revenue by licensing content to our Cable Networks segment our Cabl e Communications segment receives incentives offered by our Cable Networks segment in connection with its distribution of the Cable Networks’ content that are recorded as a reduction to programming expenses No single customer accounted for a significan t amount of revenue in any period. We use operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, excluding impairment charges related to fixed and intangible assets and gains or losses on the sale of assets, if any, as the measure of profit or loss for our operating segments. This measure eliminates the significant level of noncash depreciation and amortization expense that results from the capital-intensive nature of certain of our businesses and from intangible assets recognized in business combina tions. Additionally, it is unaffected by our capital structure or investment activities. We use this measure to evaluate our consolidated operating performance and the operating performance of our operating segments and to allocate resources and capital to our operating segments. It is also a significant performance measure in our annual incentive compensation programs. We believe that this measure is useful to investors because it is one of the bases for comparing our operating performance with that of oth er companies in our industries, although our measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures used by other companies. This measure should not be considered a substitute for operating income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to Comcast Corpo ration, net cash provided by operating activities, or other measures of performance or liquidity we have reported in accordance with GAAP.
