Broadband prices have declined continuously over the past decade across the OECD area, while connection speeds have increased. Most OECD countries have at least one operator actively offering fibre-based, high-speed broadband connections, although these may be limited to certain geographical areas. Fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) and fibre-tothe- building (FTTB) also enable symmetrical upload and download speeds, which permit new functionalities and better user experience for a range of online activities, such as sharing pictures, video conferencing or uploading content onto social-networking websites.
