Virgin will launch 50Mbps broadband in 2008


by Lin Freestone

Virgin Media has confirmed that it will launch 50 megabits per second broadband across its network in 2008. Recent trials of the service have proved successful, and will be expanded.

A Virgin spokesman has said that they’ll never know exactly what demand there'll be for super-fast broadband until it's in people's homes and workplaces up and down the UK.

Virgin does acknowledge, however, that its cable network has a unique potential to revolutionise consumers' experience. The company is convinced that 2008 is the moment to take the lead with the commercial launch of a 50 megabit product, confirming its intention to focus on fast broadband as its strength over rivals.
