Virgin media to upgrade broadband speeds again

[mrwoooooooo]

Peak internet use by Virgin Media customers has grown 55% in the past year and has increased by almost 1000% since the company’s launch in 2007. It is for this reason that Virgin Media will boost broadband speeds for existing customers over the next twelve months: 30Mb customers can boost to 50Mb, 60Mb to 100Mb and 120Mb can get 152Mb.

Posted about this back in Nov 2013. Today is also the day they turn on the porn filters for new customers as well.

They've also announced they're going to stop throttling download speeds during peek times which is great. Although they're keeping it for p2p downloads (Keeping it for uploads)
