So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Hello everyone,
I've been out of the Usenet scene for a while, any recommendations on the best/cheapest?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: https://squareeyed.org/browse Has turned out to be a nice little indexer. I'm sure there's much better but I don't know them. Anyways free users get 10 downloads a day I believe

Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Easynews has an annual/unlimted deal for around $50/yr? You may need to google for it; I found the link on Reddit a few years ago. It was/is not advertised very much (or at all).
-
Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Nice. I'll have to check around Reddit then since it's 9.99 month right now.
Thank you
A sites good for block accounts? It doesn't look like Easynews has anyone, just monthly plans.

Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Hello, you legend :kiss: Frugal Usenet is 5 USD per month if you pay a year upfront ($6 otherwise). Usenet.farm's cheapest plan is 5 EUR a month. They're both good in my experience, although Farm has speed and transfer caps that may or may not be okay for you.
King's Day is a good time to scout for deals in Dutch providers.

Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Frugal Usenet sounds right up my alley. I've been searching for free accounts but no dice. $60 a year plus a 300gb block account. Sounds good to me.
Thank you my friend. :cool:

See if this offer is still good: https://signup.easynews.com/checkout...-special-deal/
Or this one: https://signup.easynews.com/checkout/special-for-you-a/ :)

Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Nope. Neither are. I just get kicked to a weird Wordpress page.
Thank you for trying though.
I'm still looking for that crazy good deal so I haven't started with anyone yet, but Frugal is looking like the best.
-
Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Links load for me and $2 per month for the first 15 months!? Now that's worth looking into...
If you know someone else in the same situation, you could split costs. Frugal doesn't allow account sharing, but others do.
-
Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
The links load for you? I wonder why not me. I'm just using Firefox. Hmm .. I'll try on my desktop as they are not loading for me on this laptop. Or I'll try them on my Windowz partition.
Actually my nephew would probably wanna get on this. He's just getting into piracy and loves it, but he's using bitorrent. I wouldn't mind sharing an account with him.
Thanks you guys.

Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
You are just clicking on the link, right? You are not trying to highlight/copy/paste (because that won't work with ... shortened URL)?
And of course you want to use a virtual credit card that expires before the 15 months are over so that the account does not get renewed at the higher rate (or you just cancel the account manually before renewal), and then you sign up for this deal again and create a new account. :)
-
Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Yep, I'm just clicking on them. No highlighting to copy/paste. I don't get it. Kicks me out to a Wordpress site that has nothing on it.
I'll try it on my Windowz partition when I jump back on it and see if that somehow does it. I don't know how it would be different though.

Fiscal responsibility :smilie4: This deal tops Frugal's, in fact I'm wondering how they can even make a profit with such a low price. Nice share!

Let's try the opposite - copy and paste but from this code block.
Code:
https://signup.easynews.com/checkout/unlimited-special-deal/
https://signup.easynews.com/checkout/special-for-you-a/

That did it. ;) Thank you. I'll be getting the $1.99 month deal shortly. I hope it stays like that until next Friday!

Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Just watch that renewal. ouch. "Billed $29.85 for 15 months and then $79.99 every 12 months thereafter"
-
Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Well, if America still exists 15 months from now, you can cancel like Caballero said to avoid paying those 80 rubles.

Ouch! I will indeed cancel before the year is up. Hopefully another promo shows up at that time.

Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
That link has been around for a while. Wouldn't surprise me if you couldn't use it again 15 months from now.
-
Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Sounds good to me :)
Thank you for the help you and anon

Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
For what it's worth, searching site:signup.easynews.com in Google reveals some other promos. None of them seems better than the $2 one, though.
-
Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Ah so it does. Nice little trick there ;). But yeah I didn't see anything as low as the $2 one. I don't know where that link was found but I'm glad it was!
As far as indexers, FST, Squareeyed, NZBFinder, and NZBKing has been treating my nice.

Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
I didn't know about squareeyed, thanks!

No problem!
Saw on Reddit that Usenet Farm is giving 25% off all packages for the next day or two. A Blue Monday promo, whatever that is. Use coupon code: BM2025
-
Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
"Blue Monday" :wacko: Well, who cares as long as the prices are good.
-
Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Yeah I've never heard of it either. Must be something that they specifically made up. The prices aren't the lowest but they're something.
-
Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Newshosting is by far the best F/P provider.

Re: So what is today's best and cheapest provider?
Yeah they're doing me good. Maxed out speed and long retention plus cheap price.
