I thought the Blueyonder news server was nuked and that was the end of it? I know Blueyonder had terrible retention (3 days) and a tonne of problems with Highwinds. Any idea who VM have oursourced to now and what their retention is?
I can get 12.5MB/s from news.virginmedia.com however atleast with the file I used I required lots of connections.

I believe Virgin still outsource to Highwinds and retention is now 30 days.
