Hi all

I used newsgroups quiet i while back but lost the link
Seeing how it was so long ago I now need to know whats the best and cheapest newgroup to subscribe to please?
It has to have its own search feature aswell.

Thanks

Best and Cheapest don't go well together! You mean the best newsgroup at the cheapest price possible?

Jesus sounds like some newsgroup site that m8
You got a link please

have a look here for some comparisons between providers

- of course the 'free' VM newsgroup service is the cheapest, but groups peered with, completion & retention are pants compared to a paid for service.

To state my bias I use GigaNews on the 25GB per month tariff ($12.99) & either NewzBin (25p per week) or Merlin's Portal (free) for searches.

I've used Easynews for the last four years, currently $9.99 (about £5.00) for 20Gig. They've just started beta testing a European based server farm.

I've just started with http://www.powerusenet.com/... free trial and then a couple of months cheaper... no problems to report at all... except the VM cap of course...

Im with Newsgroups direct its only £10 for unlimited download and you can have 20 connections for faster speed if ya get me lol

I swear by newshosting.com at the moment as im not having any problems maxing out 20mbit with 8 connections and it's only around £8 a month for unlimited.

[iFrankie]

that sounds good i might change over

Why not just use the free newsgroup servers from your ISP?

[bigboab5]

I use Astraweb for $15 a month (just over £7) on the unlimited DSL offer, they have 115 day retention (and increasing daily!!), european server and I can have 20 connections. And can usually get max speed on 20mb.


I have had very little problems with them since i went to them.
