Whatever happened to Usenet?
 

Filled with spam and loads of incompletes. :cry:

Was using Astraweb with Usenet-News as backup server.

Never thought I would use torrents for my 'stuff' but get what I look for first time now. ;)

i stopped paying for usenet and use virginmedias free one, and private torrent site for tv show now

Virgins free news address is useless though.

If you want things with big retention yes but I don't come across many incompletes and Max's out at 140mb.

I really only get the recent stuff so the 10 day retention will do me fine

I use astraweb, very rarely have a problem getting stuff but tbh I just use it for my TV shows now. Newsbin pro + sickbeard/plex = never miss a tv show. I get my movies off yify, I used to have 30gb+ rips and they were tanning my HDD space, now I use the yify rips (1080p) which are 2gb each max.

That's exactly what I do, yify is a great site for latest movies. Probably not be around for much longer through VM however.

This is a very good VPN to get to torrent sites https://mullvad.net/en/ ;)

I can achieve around 6-10 mbps.

News hosting or giganews. A lot gets taken down now ASAP so you need to be quick.

Nzbgrabit.cz for ease of use
