What is eBay addiction, compulsive online gambling, and other types of Internet addiction?

I'm going to need a little more information before I buy into this. 

The study, Glued to the Screen: An investigation into information addiction worldwide, shows that we are witnessing the rise of a new generation of ‘dataholics’. Based on a survey of 1,000 people in the UK, US, Ireland, Germany, Singapore and Hong Kong, the survey shows that over half of respondents 'crave' information, while almost 50% claim that if information was a recognized drug, they would know people who would be considered as addicted.
