no you can use any server. but good servers costs monthly ~10 bucks
Re: I found me a new home
Cheers IKE, I've read Realitys Guide on newsgroups along with the basics covered in the guides he mentioned. Without going to far off topic, would you be kind enough as to answer these few questions on newgroups:
* Why are people so open about it? - The download of copyrighted files is illegal, in which case why are there guides and so on, along with services providing the service. I'm guessing it's because it's primarily a news service right?
* Join Newshosting and I'm set? - Once I join newshosting ( I'm aware there's other companies ), I can use a newsgroup search site and immediatly get to downloading? )
Edit: Just signed up using the forums refferal link, does that warrant me premnium support from you guys? :p

Posting how you should download stuff off usenet is not illegal.
Downloading movies here in the Netherlands is also legal :P
Yes, when you got your account name and password you can start downloading. make sure you use an 'unlimited' account (and not one where you pay per GB)
and thank you for using our refferal link ;)
Re: I found me a new home
Excellent stuff, thanks IKE .. have got it set up and am download a file in 16 parts ( currently have 4 parts downloading ). All seems to be going well.
Am using Gabit, with 4 items on the go as said, with Gabit going through each in turn downloading an 'article'. Am keeping an eye on the download speed, which is maxing out ( 2mb = 250kb/s as far as I remember ), but going down to 0 and back up repeatedly every 10 seconds or so .. is this normal?

Is your internet speed dropping or is it because grabit finished downloading a 'part' (every file has multiple parts)?
you should try newsleecher. (I can send you version 1 if you want :naughty: ) Newsleecher is much better then grabit.
