Hi guys,
Has anyone else noticed that we have access to stuff as old as 400+ days now? I've been paying for astraweb but I am going to cancel it now, seeing as I get similar service for free!
Use this tool to check:
http://members.home.nl/yencbin_poste...nload_checker/
Load the server and nzb into that and it'll check if the posts are on the servers if you don't believe me. :P
Seems VM has just paid highwinds-media to let virgin users connect to their servers, a traceroute shows news.virginmedia.com going to the exact same server that the premium hosts use (e.g. newsdemon and usenet-news)
Thanks,
internetguy
