[Raises thread from the dead]

I'm thinking of moving from using torrents for my..."Linux distros"...to using newsgroups instead.

A friend has recommended EasyNews, which going by their site looks pretty good - & cheap (10 dollars for 20GB, with SSL, IIRC).

I've also seen people here at CF recommend GigaNews, although they seem to cost a bit more plus you have to pay extra for SSL.

Any particular pros/cons about either?

Anyone got any reasons to use one & avoid the other?
