    Why wouldn't you rather pay just $14/month for a news server and max your connection?

    How does this newsgroup look like? Do you need a client installed on your PC to use it? What`s the difference between Bitorrent and News server or newsgroup. Never heard about it...

    For me, it was for 3-4 months to buffer my accounts and get some trackers i wanted with it

    For the newsgroup, you have to pay each month for it that's what i don't like...but now i can leech the hell out of tracker sites for a year or 2

    Sorry for the noob question but...

    Can you rent a seedbox just for a couple os months?
    Or do you have to stick with it for a full year or so?

    Or you could get a rapidshare account which is way cheaper than usenet or a seedbox (about ~75USD / year). The only downside is that there is a 'limit' which amounts to approximately ~152GB / month. There's a lot more content and theoretically infinite retention rates.

    Leaseweb is excellent, if you need a seedbox go for them
    For 130$ i can go to shop and buy what i want


    Exactly! 130bucks is a lot of money. Crazy how much money people are willing to throw away.

    For an additional $25, you could get a Newshosting account for an entire year with unlimited bandwidth and download everything you get from trackers. Plus, you will max out your download speed 100% of the time. No uploading or seeding at all.... and it's completely safe.

    There are guides in the Newsgroup section. Yes you need a client. I use Grabit.

    It's no harder to learn than torrents. If anyone wants help setting up a server or wants recommendations, they're more than welcome to find me on MSN. Don't come to MSN asking me about what newsgroups are as that's all answered in the Newsgroups section.
