Verizon To Discontinue Newsgroups September 30 → Re: It's time to shut down UseNet anyway.

Yeah, you tell 'em, there's nothing good on Usenet. Not worth anybody paying any attention to it whatsoever...

There is plenty of good on usenet. It all becomes a question of costs/benefits, since probably only 2% of internet users actually know what usenet is..... and probably only half of them actually using it, it's just a money pit for most ISP's.

No one is leaving ISP's (anymore) due to the lack of usenet, because most of them have actually already cut it.

All the TEXT groups you can get through a variety of free usenet servers and Google groups.... and for BINARIES you can get a 3d party subscription, which can cost you as little as $3 for a pre-paid block of data if all you want is a few non-warez binaries now and then.

I agree, there's nothing to see on usenet, everyone ignore and pretend its not there

Mad Men S03E03 an hour after it airs at 30Mb/s. Totally useless.

Newsgroups does suck . Let just it ignore it maybe it will go away. The weather was beautiful today, how about those bears.

Yea, nothing on those Usenet inter-tubes at all. Hey, was that a balloon I just saw go by... It looked JUST like Elvis.

I disagree. I love my Thundernews usenet subscription. And at about $20 a month, you can't go wrong.

sshhhhh. there's nothing to see on usenet.

I'll go you one better. It doesn't even exist!
Move along noobs, nothing to see there.
