50MB is a good way to go, but VM need to spend serious amounts of money on
their networks to bring them up to scratch. As with some UK companies, they
think that they can start introducing more tiers to their product catalogue
without investing in the intrastructure.

is that good for publicity only ISP to offer 50Meg but in reality
allowing for all the caveats ("... up to 50Meg") it will be the

Considering that my trial of Virgin's 4MB service gave an average speed of
1.5Mbps according to thinkbroadband's speed test with a wondrous 500kbps or so
at peak times, maybe a Virgin 50MB service might just manage to match a maxDSL
connection with a competent ISP ?
Here's what my connection with Idnet can deliver. 7036kbp down.
