Re: [TWC] Road Runner Newsgroups Discontinued

Unfortunately I'm compelled to agree that until FIOS is in my area, I won't be switching. The DSL option isn't worth it for the speeds.

I think this is a gigantic mistake on TW's part though, since those that are using the newsgroup service will now just rely more heavily on torrents. Now instead of people using 400KB/s on newsgroups, people will be using their full cap up AND down on torrents to keep ratios.

Very stupid move. They did this to target the bandwidth users, and it's just going to cause them to use more bandwidth.
