Best and Cheapest don't go well together! You mean the best newsgroup at the cheapest price possible?

have a look here for some comparisons between providers

http://www.newsgroupservers.net/

- of course the 'free' VM newsgroup service is the cheapest, but groups peered with, completion & retention are pants compared to a paid for service.

To state my bias I use GigaNews on the 25GB per month tariff ($12.99) & either NewzBin (25p per week) or Merlin's Portal (free) for searches.

I've used Easynews for the last four years, currently $9.99 (about £5.00) for 20Gig. They've just started beta testing a European based server farm.

I've just started with http://www.powerusenet.com/... free trial and then a couple of months cheaper... no problems to report at all... except the VM cap of course...

I swear by newshosting.com at the moment as im not having any problems maxing out 20mbit with 8 connections and it's only around £8 a month for unlimited.

Why not just use the free newsgroup servers from your ISP?

I use Astraweb for $15 a month (just over £7) on the unlimited DSL offer, they have 115 day retention (and increasing daily!!), european server and I can have 20 connections. And can usually get max speed on 20mb.


I have had very little problems with them since i went to them.
