Have you ever tried newsgroups...if yes how was your experience!!!

i use both bittorrent and newsgroups. i like newgroups because it maxes out my bandwidth. but they suck because you don't have the sense of community like you do with private trackers. If i lived in another country (not US where I'm most likely to get caught when uploading taragigs of shizz) and had a sweet upload speed or access to an affordable seedbox i would definitely go with only bittorrent but i have non so usenet it is.

I have had a quick look into news groups but it took long enough to get my head around bittorrent so that is as far as i got really.

Bittorent was the easiest for me. NG wasn't hard either.
