Highwinds (60 days from my ISP) and Astraweb
alt.binz and Grabit

formerly giganews but they suck bad now so tweaknews for completion and newshosting for speed.newsleecher 3.7 and newsleecher 4.0 due to different aspects of each program such as when downloading large groups nl3.7 hangs and has a fault upon restart compared to nl4.0 but nl3.7 allows copy and past of article headers where nl4.0 does not.both cracked but no supersearch.also use binsearch as thats the best.for posting i use camelpowerpost and YencPowerPostA&A11b.exe.as per servers the 2 i have now are a better price range than my giga/newshosting setup and way more completion.im pissed at giga as they leave dmca'ed files that HAVE BEEN REMOVED as downloadable but unusable files.so u download 90+ rars and pars then when u have all that space takin up ur hd u find that every file u thought was complete is "unrecognizable" and no matter how many times u par it and it says complete it isnt.this is a way for giga to say they have the retention while at the same time knee bending to the dmca as fast as they can-its a big assed scam by giga due to the dmca removing most of what they used to have .what good is retention if u have nothing to download and use.

forgot to add that using giga or news hosting im using around 7 to 9 connections and using tweak its around 7 to 9 connections as well.this tops my speeds at around 4.5 megs per second--means i get a normal dvd5 in about 30 minutes or less.

Newsleecher with their OEM usenet feed. Man, I miss the days when usenet was included with my internet subscription.

Then again I had 56kbs then. So I guess I don't after all.

Simple casual setup;
Newleecher/tweaknews & usenetbucket

[asdef4]

Pretty basic. I usually just stream, but when I want something I use the free Hitnews service.

Newsbin, Astraweb (primary - unlimited), tweaknews (block - not needed for a long time now but always handy)
