That sounds like more of a personal problem. :ermm:Quote:

I prefer Torrents but Newsgroups is faster and no uploading.
for music, BT is/was way better for me. i can rarely find what i want on the newsgroups. when oink was rolling, i could find almost anything right away.
newsgroup is pretty good
i use free server,it's speed is very fast too
it's problem is free server is too less
I like Bittorrents, u can download big files with quite a descent speed sometimes..Thatīs always nice...

I get the newest stuff, at the fastest speeds (13Mbps, my lines limit), in the most secure way possible.
And best of all, I'm totally leeching. Downloading about 500-600GBs a month!!!
My Usenet account is well worth 20 bones a month.
Sounds like newsgroups are the hidden gems. At least for the pros.
Reading this, I felt like I was being bukakked with stupid.Quote:

It isn't even debatable information. The "facts" you're listing are just flat out wrong and it shows your blatant inexperience.
Get a clue before posting such blather which only provides genuinely inquisitive members with false information.
+1, personally i think every means of downloading have some advantages and disadvantages; if your looking for oldies and rare stuff use emule, pron and most of dialup user go for rapidshare, asian movies/music= megaupload,if you want to do some downloading while extending your e-penis go for torrent, and lastly for heavy downloading internet user i'll say NG is your answerQuote:

@typoholic, your statement might be true for rs/mu if you dont use download manager to get your stuff. yes i've use torrent before, both in private and public trackers, and so far the best downloading speed that i've had is around 700kbps, where as if i use flashget or MU manager i normally got around 400kbps per file for 3 files at the same time, and the fastest speed that i've had so far is 700 kbps perfile at the same time for 3 different files, now i was wondering what trackers do you use or you simply made up your statement-since i dont see any proof at all- and yes i've hold both RS and MU account for more than 2.5 years now, and i do know to get my sh**t even before the existence of warez-bb, forum-w,and projectw :whistlingQuote:

I moderate a warez forum where everything is on RS/MS/MU, and I have premium accnts to all of the above.
Torrents are faster; I have proved it on this end.
Use whatever you prefer. Although why somebody would downloading something on BT when it is on usenet is beyond me. Yeah I really want to sit on a tracker for days getting my ratio up. But sometimes I have to. I think we should all say a big thanks to those posters who make all this possible and stop spinning around what is better. Who the hell cares I don't.:01:
i prefer newsgroups for the speed & ease of use - simple click on nzb and you're done, with giganews & hellanzb:down:
lately i've become curious about the level of private torrent sites; from what i've gathered, only TT might compete with newsgroups for my trance needs, but so far i've been unable to get invited - it seems like there's this scheme where ppl with long private torrent experience & many invites trade invites among themselves for the lulz & others with desire & bandwidh to share are simply left out:ermm:
Perhaps TranceTraffic would be good for that? Although I never was a member of that site, seems very hard to get into there..Quote:

So free for free I stay on BT. =)
where did you hear that statement, as far as 90 days worth of retention period you that statement was true 2 YEARS AGO, right now usenet is much better.Quote:

and that is why i preferred to stay as usenet user :)
my sources are from a french forum:http://www.tutorials-newsgroup.com/n...up_serveur.php
and if you want usenet without quota you have to pay 20€ and as you can see there is a retention of 70 days.
for 17€ what 've you got? ilimited and how many days of retention?
alfry you have to update ur information here some useful links
http://www.newsgroupservers.net/
http://www.ngprovider.com/
http://www.giganews.com/
well my friend, for 17 euros per month you got yourself an unlimited download and 200 days of retention, and like what r77 says above, even though i found out about giganews from this particular forum, based on what i've seen around the net, this usenet server seems to a reputable company, as opposed to some companiesthat are being listed on the link that you gave me. by the way, giganes also being listed on that french forum, here's the linkQuote:

and ignore the price that they put up there, because based on the current conversion of usd to eur, $ 25 worth approximately about $17
