/BBC/ Virgin Media has launched its new 50 Megabits per second (Mbps) domestic broadband service.
In 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.
The new 50 Mbps service will cost £51 a month, although this is reduced to £35 if users also take a Virgin Phone line for an additional £11 a month.
The service will put Virgin at the top of the speed league for UK ISPs.
Close behind is Be Broadband which offers a 24Mbps service for £17.50 per month.
The details of the service were released during a news conference on Monday. Trials of the high-speed service were carried out in Kent during 2008.
The service will be rolled out country-wide over the next six months.
The news comes as the cable group announces that it will cut 2,200 jobs by 2012.
