Rightly so: the alt.binaries newsgroups are porn-fuelled and high bandwidth.
Back in 96 my country (India's) only ISP didn't supply a newsfeed.
I searched high and low for free NNTP servers - my favorite was
news.uni-stuttgart.de
Still, it's good to know that these free servers are still available even
after the net's grown so much. Deja news is great for tracking information,
but super *slow*
