Is it just me, or is there a surprisingly low number of albums available on Usenet? Of course, it may be because I largely use nzb's, but it seems as if the majority of content available are movies.

Try not using nzb's for albums... just browse headers in a.b.complete_cd's or something like that!

Theres TONS!

Full albums are out there, but I only post NZBs for things I think will be wanted that hasn't been posted to death.
This is why you see me post Mastermix issues (they're essential for DJs).
I do see a lot back catalogue stuff by the likes of SOAD, Disturbed, Foo Fighters and lots of general death metal, but hold back with their NZBs cos they're always being posted.

A few groups to try off the top of my head:
a.b.mp3.2000s
a.b.m.full-albums
a.b.m.complete_cd

Thanks, that helps a lot. Are pars usually posted alongside the headers? I'm nervous about missing chunks of songs because of (rare) completion issues...

Par sets are more often posted than not for albums in the mp3 groups.
