    Question Mark

    im trying to understand this new (to me) way of downloading with newsgroups
    and of what i see ...
    if my isp has no news server ... im f*****
    if i dont want to pay to get access to a newsgroup server ... im f*****

    are there any free newsgroup server... free access... open signup?
    some with invite system?

    damn i like the sharing community, but i dont want to be fourced to pay, if i like what i see i will donate... but to pay to get access ... hell no

    maybe i understood the hole thing wrong ...

    thanks for any help

    invite system? usenet isnt like bittorrent.

    There are NO good free usenetservers.

    You need to pay because the servers need to pay their high bills

    youre joking right? lol
    with how much they get off you, they could pay a server for a year =))
    they could get money for the server from donations, from adds... so many things ... whatever
    i know now that im not interested in this kind of sharing

    Someone never understand about UseNet is that they get much more than what they pay for it
    So just ignore them.
    Donation? lol
    Think about your ISP and they hope their customers would donate them?
    Advertisement? lol 1000 times
    UseNet is not a web site, how can they earn $ from ads?

    Again, there isn't free and good UseNet services.

    try to get some stuff from usenet, see the speed, the quality of releases and after that you can decide to pay or not ..

    I came to usenet from torrents..I now only use torrents when the things don't show up on usenet..Can't beat the speed or the fact I don't have to upload and have my ip out there for all to see..Usenet is the only way to go..For 14.95 a month for unlimited downloading compared to the risks in torrents and ftps..No brainer..Usenet is here for good..
