said by swintec:Are we using the internet in general for what it was originally designed for? Are we using computers the same way as they were originally designed for? There was a time many years ago when it was said the whole world would need only 5 computers..Now look where we are. Heck, cable networks were never "for" internet access. Things especially in the technology world, evolve.
I hear exactly what you are saying but as technology has progressed so have the applications available. I maintain that usenet serves its purpose as a text bulletin board. It was never meant to be one of the last bastions for the "I want it free brigade"
