Download speeds are usually higher than upload speed, why is that? Even if you are on fiber, then you get to experience the fantastic glory of matching rates, you should still watch this.
Up = against gravity therefore slower
Down = With gravity therefore faster
Just science

Plot twist: This video was supposed to be uploaded yesterday, but the upload speed was too slow

Me: lives in hungary in a village, dirt road infront of house, forest everywhere.
1 Gbit up and down for each house in the village by telekom.
Never went under 900 mbit

Short answer: Because ISPs can make money off of it.

I think you missed the main reason: MONEY
ISPs consider a large uploading service to be a business (web/video/content hosting, P2P/B2B, etc). And as a business you are 'making money' off their service. So, of course, you should be charged more. Many ISPs have 'Business' accounts that grant higher upload speeds...for a hefty price. Even though its the same hardware throughout. It really has very little to do with 'bandwidth', and much to do about customer gouging.

We don't use 'pipes' here in Australia, we use 'straws'.

If we're downloading, someone must be uploading....

Techquickie: Why are upload speeds so low ?
*Me with 0.35 Mbps download and 56 Mbps upload internet speed*

I have a 4Mbps download and 0.4Mbps upload speed over ADSL. Yesterday it took me 3 hours to upload a 145Mb file to YouTube. Living in South Africa is so much fun...

So that's why my GF said the cable guy was there to lay down some pipe.

Watching on Gigabit internet in Lithuania:
Up: 580mbps
Down: 960mbps
19.90eur/month <-- compared to US it's so cheap.

Lol, I've got 900/400Mb/s. Only 110NZD (70.65USD) a month. Internet in New Zealand is great. Thank you Chorus, and you being partly state-owned to ensure you roll out the Government's Fibre connection programme.
