Bittorrent vs. Newsgroups

[Ketamine]

Newsgroups for sure! Faster,Safer,and no uploading!

NGs have their advantages and also their disadv.

Big 1 - can't find anything like on bt

[Sonnentier]

Newgroups have an incredible selection of content, new and old, and in the right places, excellent communities. That is, after all the point of newsgroups - feel free to venture outside the binaries and actually read some posts at some point.

How is it with communities especially about exchanging files?

mm.. because someone actually uploaded those file

Sorry it wasn't phrased well. I meant, are there also good communitys about exchanging certain files. You can communicate through the group I guess and probably there are also good forums, that's what I meant.

That sounds like more of a personal problem.

I have no problem finding anthing.
In fact, I'm finding so much that I'm starting to have problems with my ISP over the amount of bandwidth I'm using. (I guess 1TB a month might be excessive... damn porn!!!).

I prefer Torrents but Newsgroups is faster and no uploading.

for music, BT is/was way better for me. i can rarely find what i want on the newsgroups. when oink was rolling, i could find almost anything right away.
