Yeah, news-groups always have been (and will be, I pray) the backbone of the internet (and the internet warez community ;)).
Sadly, free initiatives (with binary support) have been rare. In the 90s I remember core^dump@mailandnews.com.... They went into a coma over a decade ago :| I sooooo miss the "^" in my @ddress (and will be doing so till the day I will go coma :>)
Anyways, last year or so finally a free newsgroup provider popped up once more - and they are still living on today!
Check them out here:
Lifetime 1Mbit Usenet
• 900 days retention • No logfiles!
• 9000TB Storage • No personal details
Free vs Premium
Speed - 1Mbit 100Mbit
Data - 25GB Unlimited
Connections 2 20
Max Hosts 1 4
SSL no yes
Retention 10 days 900 days
As low as Free €2.99
The retention time is a downer - I'll admit that. BUT it is FREE :P
Only thing I need now is a good newsgroup client - something I always fail in finding :(
TIPS! Pretty pleace and...
Karma!
