And I could start a news server up with the same goodies for $10 a month.
Just because one company says $13 doesnt mean that is the going rate for keeping servers up.
You will probably find they will get about 200% profit or more with prices like that.
VM will pay a standard cost for their Usenet access, you think they are paying that out of their own good hearts? I think not.
