Default Brake dust accumulation weirdness

I've own my B6 for about a month and I've noticed that accumulate more brake dust on the rear wheels than on the front. This seems pretty odd considering the car drives forward for 99% of the time and that the front brakes are primarily used...or aren't they.

Is this normal or do I have a symptom of a problem to come?

All B6's are like that... haha this has been talked about before, because it is indeed very strange. But do not fear... you are not alone.
