Which Usenet provider do you use, and how happy are you with it?

Nope I'm not. Tried a different trial and it was fine again. Luckily I have sent a cancellation request to astraweb within a 24 hour timeframe and can can get my $ back according to their policy. I'm now using "Newsfeeds". Great so far because I'm getting the full use of my connection.

I always max my 30mb connection with astraweb

Me too :) Including SSL ones.

ngroups and satisfy me :D

Giganews all the way you just cant beat the content the speed and the retention. Well worth the few extra buxs

Been using usenetnow.net for the past couple of months, cant be happier. Retention is a bit higher than Astraweb at the moment to so I cant complain!

No it's not, Astraweb will have more retention, the same content and the same speed, unlimited use $11, and free SSL...you have to pay for SSL for Giganews, so it is not worth it.

Only used Giganews upto now and never seen any reason to change. Although recently with the Pound going down it costs me about £3 more than it used to but that's not down to Giganews as their price is still the same as it was when I first joined.

I'm going to try astraweb at the end of this month. Will post about it later.

I used giganews for months but I just recently switched to astraweb because it's more bang for my buck :P
