Hi,

Does anyone know of a good Newsgroup provider that will accept Paypal or Maestro?

Thanks in advance,

they do and it's around ?5 per month(depends on the exchange rate normally ?4.80-?5.20 anyway) for as much as you can download and a 30day retention. been with them for 2-3months now and not had any problems. fast speeds ect. well worth the money

Works out at about ?7.40 at current rates, but looks generally good. How easy is it to cancel the subscription via Paypal?

Astraweb is $10 for unlimited access with a maxmium speed of 1mb (I only have a 1meg connection anyway), but they don't accept Paypal.

I think they were originally (and technically still are) for discussions, but they've evolved into a source for pirated binary files.

Has anyone else used 100ProofNews, or have an alternative to suggest?

I've signed up with 100proofnews for a month and am currently downloading the headers from alt.binaries.cd.image, however, about 95%+ of the files in there are incomplete! Am I doing something wrong? because in it's current state it looks worse than Blueyonder's own newsgroups.

i don't get the headers anymore i use -

it's much better and quicker to just get a nzb of the site.

what server are you connected to? make sure it's the euro server

[tuvok3of11]

It's definitely the euro server, i'll give that site a go. Thanks

Your link leads to a search / advert site, in any case i've already signed up with 100proofnews so the suggestion is a bit late.
