There was a time where your ISP provided access to a Usenet server for free, but they didn't have all the newsgroups like alt.binaries or even the whole alt hierarchy. Nowadays you gotta pay for access, and you'll get access to all newsgroups. With the deals going on now, unlimited access is cheaper than most any streaming service.

OH speaking of ISPs, will they figure out that I'm using this service and serve a C&D notice, the way they used to for torrenting movies?
