said by NormanS:Why wouldn't TWC do the same on their Usenet service?
TWC doesn't offer their own usenet service. I was hoping by switching back I could hop on their promo plan once again, but they're no longer allowing EL to/from TWC hops to count towards promotional rates (they did for years). I'm paying the $50 regular internet rate now for the first time in 7 years of being a TWC or EL customer. Oh well, it was a good run.
Ended up not switching since there was no price advantage, and TWC is 15/2 Mbps vs EL at 20/2. Using a block usenet account now to make up for EL usenet dropping all TV releases.
