Re: Never used one....

Such a narrow minded view of Usenet.

Sure, you can find copyright infringing material (or in your
mistaken belief shaped by MAFIAA propaganda "pirated content")
on there, but that is only in the binary groups. And some of
that content is not infringing (open source, creative commons
licensed, etc.)

Long before forums such as this were around, and even before
the Internet as we know it today, Usenet provided help and
discussion groups for everything you could possibly think of.

And it still does. Though some groups are so filled with
flame wars, spammers and trolls, that it makes them
practically unreadable.
