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 use it exclusively. I think it's better than worrying about torrents. It almost feels obfuscated with the indexer.

    I haven't used usenet for 15 years or so. After nzbindex chucked it in.

    What's the situation with incompletes / DMCA'd releases?

    Is one usenet subscription enough or do you have 2 monthly subscriptions? do you need a block account ?
