said by peters4n6:do you continue to have success with astraweb? i am finishing up with Giganews (too expensive) and thinking of going with astraweb, but I am reading about a lot of problems with them; some are about slow speeds, others are about broken and/or incomplete files. If you check out the forums at nzbmatrix you can read about this.
Best decision I've made was to dump giganews and go with astraweb for 96$ a year. I'm totally satisfied with the service and speed I get with astraweb. Retention is over a year now and SSL is included. Save yourself a fortune and still get premium service from astraweb. I should add that there are incomplete files but that's why there're par files
