Re: [Newsgroups] Why do people upload to newsgroups?

said by joikd :

Why do people upload to newsgroups (movies, music, software, etc.)? What's in it for them?
1) helping out and 2) getting the latest releases first (which was a bigger deal 5+ years ago when generally speaking the average speeds were relatively slower)
