Re: Newsgroup....

I wouldn't call it free..

Are the ISP's still automatically deleting movies and pictures from their storage to {lazily} combat copy protection?

So is/was Gopher and WAIS. Not saying it will go away completely.. I'm saying it will not be much of a growing service ISPs will put money into.
Then you replied to the wrong person because that has nothing to do with either of my posts now..

USENET is a dead animal. Some ISPs look at it as a burden for a minuscule user base. Enhancements to it buys them nothing. Others are looking at getting rid of it all together.
lol, usenet is the internet. It'll never die.

The additional storage space doesn't interest me. What would interest me is if Comcast increased the newsgroup cap from 2GB to say 20GB.. yaa baby.
With FF and an extension, I can use Gmail for storage and it's over 2gb and almost 3!!
With the std Comcast account, you can have 7 account names. With this change that means you can have up to 7 GB of free storage. That is nice for backing up files, pics, etc. And it is free.
