Beck38....
Just on Kickass Torrents (public, and IPT has as well) there is over 10,000 1080p movies that were posted there(or whatever you call it when they load onto torrents), so time to update your knowledge on Torrents...
But they are all re encodes not too many true BD rips(you know the 30-60gig rips) , plus who the hell wants to bog up there internet that long to get that format on torrents, good luck to them, I am not interested in that...
But in instance even tonight.. I tried to get a tv show episode I missed a few weeks ago and using giganews it was a no go(alt.binaries.teevee). I just looked up on Kickass torrents, and it did take longer to download but I got it...I usually download daily but a few do slip by.
Right now I am only running Giganews , but if I really want something I can't download, and it is a bigger collection of files, I will pay for another offshore Usenet. I have used Eweka and Xs usenet, and they usually pick up what Giga misses, and I mentioned Giga is only $20US a month, how much less is Astra??
You have mentioned again that you do upload to groups... I know it is a touchy subject for you but if they are still there you are obviously uploading for a Private NZB site, are you willing to reveal that or share??
Plus members of the NZB private sites are now doing a lot of double postings in different Binary Groups for members to have a chance to get the files for a longer period of time, and they were talking about a lot of the big pirate's are still using IRC...
There was a few others offshore accounts that were mentioned at my other paid NZB sites I may try but I have no need at this point..
I just picked up on your post that said most of the retention means zero, I agree with you, especially if the files are corrupt or degraded, and it seems to be happening a lot more now then it did in the earlier days of Usenet..
You also said Giganews repaired the problem quickly... What did you say to the person(I have used online chat plus sent tickets in) to correct retention??
Every once and a while I will have a connection issue with them that is fixed really quick, but when I have asked them I can't access files in a Binary Group, they usually don't say much or say they are not responsible for what is uploaded in a groups...

Thanks again Beck38....
