I find that more and more companies to not support a USENET feed, perceiving
that it is mostly used for personal purposes. It is seen as a lot of clutter
for little benefit. It is mostly computer issues where there is a strong
tradition of good USENET support, where USENET is considered a primary
source of information. It is in computer technology, lead by the Internet
Engineering Task Force (IET,) where the net and by extension USENET, is
considered critical. Other businesses and technologies are discussed but
secondarily.
In other words a large number of people, myself included, have no easy
access to USENET. The problem is growing. USENET is no longer the center of
the Internet. Many people have never even heard of it.
We all have access to email.
