Or even go to to EFNET: http://www.efnet.org/?module=servers
Join random server and join our channel? (they generally fill from private trackers, so torrents might get them sooner, but most of the time pre is less than 2 mintues after pre...and is mostly less than 5 mintues and is always less than 10 mintues....
#a.b.teevee
Then you will know the second they pre

RLSlog gets there shit quick, but it's a direct download, you will see them there, but less than 5 minutes later there on Usenet with max speed and no speed limit....
I actually do check ORLY, however the appeal of a site like this one are the content descriptions/reviews and trailers.
the pre-times and whatnot don't really matter to me. does 10 min or even a day make that much of a difference? I'll download something when its up and enjoy it when I have time. It's similar checking the nzb index on this site, or somewhere else, imo
Also, I dont agree with your comment "ps direct downlaod are worthless compared to Usenet" - there is a lot of content available on ddl that you wouldn't find on usenet, and visa versa, so each has its own advantages
obviously rlsmix is not the best way to get scene content, but I've actually seen a few releases up on there that I couldn't find on usenet, and there is a lot of other material that I cannot find on usenet
sidenote - thanks for the link to the IRC client. Is it better than mIRC - thats the only one I've used
Well of course there will be different content, the big time groups eg...altbin only do scene, same with teevee, the only p2p one they upped that I can remember was the one I requested (Sons Of Anarchy-FHW)....but still man, DDL do not compare to Usenet, there more expensive, who wants to wait to download 100 parts of a game, or even if you pay for ti, it's still more than Usenet, or by limited on their speed, if you don't pay? I only use DDL sites if I "have" "have" 'to'. I can one, find it on Usenet, by looking for a "different naming" method, or request, or "upload" to help the community, cough cough
With Usenet retention going up every day, there's a less and less of a gap between NG's and DDL, and Torrents for that matter, torrents are being looked at more (cops), DDL providers are giving out info (to cops) uploader and downloaders, and Usenet as far as anyone can tell at this point is only watching out for child porn, well except Giganews that deletes everything. But they would give up info, but if your using SSL it's only you and your news provider, and don't see anyone getting in trouble unless your upload Miley Cyrus porn.
and is mostly less than 5 mintues and is always less than 10 mintues....
