We can't say exactly it depends on how many other people are downloading and exactly which filesharing site you're using.

Also as far as i'm aware you rarely get all your 50Mb for one connection.

You also need to note the difference between bits and bytes. Virgin advertise their services in Bits and most browsers show download speeds in Bytes.

MB = megabytes
Mb = megabits
8Mb = 1MB
30Mb = 3.75MB

Your 30Mb/s download speed means the best you'll ever be able to see in your browser is 3750 KB/s (3.75MB/s).

I would expect to see at least 2000 KB/s (2 MB/s).
