Title says it. Is anyone still on the newsgroups? For reasons I need to amass a large collection of music in MP3 format, preferably full albums, and I'd like to do it somewhat quickly. Is there a better place to hunt before I buy news server access? I been on land for too many years.

I know Usenet is still alive and well for video, at least. Check out soulseek for music downloads if you want to try avoiding a subscription.

    slsk would also be my recommendation for music, though I'm not sure I can recommend in good faith leeching a bunch of music all at once. Unless it's a pretty even split amongst source users, and OP intends to share afterwards.
