  If the uplink bandwidth is more than sufficient for users in Europe, and it doesn’t degrade over distance, then why is the same uplink not enough for the exact same thing in Asia?

  Exactly, bandwidth doesn’t degrade over distance, so why would the uplibk bandwidth be the issue for Asia when its fine for Europe.

  Ok you’re almost there. It is plenty fast for people in Europe but it is slow for those in Asia. So bandwidth is not the issue

    When talking about media streaming, there’s a number of other things that cause problems Bandwidth, meaning the total amount of information you can send overall, is less likely to be a problem versus jitter, packet loss, and latency spikes.

    For this purpose, but OP would tune both the server and the clients to cache ahead more, or send in smaller packets, it could possibly be a good workaround.

    Spending an insane amount of money putting what I’m guessing is illegally obtained content on a CDN distribution is crazypants.
