That is a good deal, not as good as their lifetime Octoberfest deal but still good.

Do they maintain their own servers or resell?

they are resellers. I've been using them for a bout a year and it's been great.

Seems nice. I have a question when paying with paypal. Do they really filter out all adult newsgroups so that if you wanna download pr0n you have to pay with credit card?

That's lame that you can't access the adult reservered groups if you purchase your membership via PayPal. i wonder what they were thinking when they agreed with to that arrangement.

i suppose members that are under 18 years of age in this forum can use that "option" when trying to convince their parents that they should have access to usenet service. :lol:

Hello! I use NGroups.net, too. IMHO a great provider/reseller. I asked them about the adult groups. They replied they filter out the adult groups for paypal users, but only in the provided groups list. The groups are still available, even though they aren't visible to news readers.
