I think we pay more in the USA, because ISP's charge the "middle class" based on the its ability to pay, rather than some reasonable markup of the cost to provide the service. With families paying $150+ / month for cellular service and $100+ for cable television, customers are used to paying another $50 / month for 20 Mbps down, 1 Mbps up internet service. And of course, more for "premium" internet service
