Anyone still use Usenet?
Gave up a while back due to DCMA takedowns / Spam, however, really miss maxxing out my connection for the full download speeds.
Any decent NSP's, .nzb sites still around?

I used to hammer my connection with Usenet too but also gave up for the same reasons. A mate tried it again recently and said it was rubbish

How does that work? Can you download any torrent or just the shared ones on the site?
I take it there's a subscription?
The fastest I get using Tixati is around 5mbps, and that's only very occasionally.
