Downloading speed question

Question

why does every file on the internet has different download speeds like for example I am downloading a file from a website and the speed is 40kbps and sometimes when downloading a different file from another website the speed is about 25kbps, is this like torrents that there are also seeders. And another question, does the time of day affect your download speed, like for example I started downloading at 6:00 am or 5:00 pm???

Answer 1

Different website different servers. And yes, time of the day does affect download speed. Depending on where you stay. If you stay in US your download speed will be faster at night, since most people are asleep and vice verse. If the website you download from is very popular among other people too then it's common to have slower download speed

Answer 2

it depends on the volume of internet traffic and the speed of the server  where your downloading from
