Virgin Media broadband speeds up
Virgin Media is widely expected to unveil a 50 Megabits per second (Mbps) domestic broadband service today.
It doing so it will be the first UK ISP to roll out a next generation broadband service that runs far faster than most others available to UK web users.
So far no word has been given on pricing or which parts of the country will be the first to get it.
Currently, the fastest domestic broadband speed available from Virgin Media is 20Mbps.
