Its there for formality and respect. Proper use of usted conveys repect to people (older than you, bosses, authority figures). Its singular as well.
¡Corre rapido usted! (you run fast sir)
Vos is an informal way of addressing someone you know well.
¡Correis rapido! (you run fast buddy)

I like the way you put this - coolclay, Nov 5, 2011
I believe the conjugation "correis"is incorrect. I'm not an expert on vos, but I believe it should be corrés. - Nicole-B, Nov 5, 2011
