[merged] binary newsgroups on NTL - Page 15

funny enough, when i went from BT dialup, to ntl I was amazed how many more groups were available, the ntl newsgroups are flakey, sometimes, but when they work they are pretty good

Cheers guys for your responses.Yay servers seems to be updating OK again,must have had a 24hr shut down for some reason

For most part I'm very happy with ntl (for the guys who use its whole package including its newserver & webspace you can't complain for its good price) so untill the dreaded cap's kick in,I'm sure I'll stick around.Did check a few isp's websites out yesterday so many which seemed good I couldnt get in my area Bulldog seemed to be about the best including free uk landline calls but a guy on irc told me its very unstable connection wise,something Ive never had a problem with ntl apart from the odd shut down due to local road works.

I was wondering if anyone here could help me, im trying to download from alt.binaries.dvd.image or something like that. Im on NTL and i've heard that NTL have a newsgroup for this.

Thanks for reading.

Or you can try Giganews, Newshosting, Usenetserver

Great retention and loads of binary groups

According to the Service Status, NTL are going to be revamping their Newsgroup support soon. Anyone have any idea what this is going to entail? I'd hate to see another cull of the binaries. I have to get my tranny pr0n from somewhere

Cheers, Sime

thanks for the welcome. I thought I'd posted more than once here, but how wrong was I.

Well they do say 'improved' service. Any change is better than no change, especially if more binary groups are added...like my requested ones

Really, really doubt it but you never know.
