Where's the content?

There's only so many open source distros you can d/l in a month.

Linux researchers with obsessive tendencies?

There's always a need for a VPN. Just because your newsgroup connection is SSL, doesn't mean your ISP does not know where you're connecting to - they put 1+1 with your high usage together and let's just say, they don't come up with 11. There's only so many open source distros you can d/l in a month.

The ISP Can See The Server Your Connecting To, Not The Content Being Downloaded.

Isn't the idea of usenet that everything that is on usenet is on their available for everybody. Recently with the private index sites popping up, are they specialising in certain areas and not indexing all of usenet as was the norm.

I don't see the point in usenet if it is going to be segregated in to smaller index sites specialising in specific categories only. From what I have seen Torrents are way in the lead at the moment for content.

Previously it had been usenet that had everything I was looking for, and with much higher, sustained speed. The speed is still there but the content has fallen away dramatically, at least in my experience.

Cyber,

I would be curious if you are using an automated (SAB/Sick/Couchpotato) system. I've yet to find a so called "private" Usenet NZB site that never has a passcoded file. If you know what you are doing, (VPN that keeps no logs) you should not have to worry about torrent lawsuits.

Even if people jump ship it won't stop the trolls from going after the Usenet. It's finally been discovered.

nzbsrus is pretty awesome with giving out nonpassworded stuff. but u have to pay. They also have the newest and up to date binary address that are giving out nonpassworded goodies like nospamcheerleaders and etc and such, when binsearch never even indexed those addresses. Anyone have a good nzb search website thats like nzbsrus that gives out nonpassworded searches all the time? i use nzbindex, usenetcrawler.

nzbsrus is good but they went to vip only using bitcoins. i see the current price for one bitcoin is $931.
